Career/A levels/GCSEs

For Pharmacy or Pharmacology - A level Chemistry and at least one other science/maths.

Chemistry, Biology and Maths would leave many good options open to you for a wide range of subjects/degrees.

As above, do not do 4 A levels unless the 4th is Further Maths.

I am picking Chemistry and Biology 100% but was gonna do maths but people are saying grade 6 is so bad that I shouldn’t do it for a levels apparently is so hard but idk what do you think I should pick have to pick 4 btw and also gonna pick business studies bc got a grade 8 but people saying I should pick economics so I’m so confused what do you think I should pick remember have to pick 4 a levels (wanna become a pharmacist but could switch to accountancy!)

Bio chem maths is enough 4 a levels aren’t needed and is additional stress and could affect your other 3 grades

Are these your actual GCSE grades or just your predictions?

Why do you have to pick 4? No university or course requires 4 A levels.

Your college can’t force you tbh for second year so do something fun that you like economics might be a shout but at the same time at my school after AS you could skip it trust me ask your teacher it’s not worth doing 4 a levels

Either way it doesn’t matter which you pick because you could always do a masters in accounting and finance after pharmacy
