'Easy' As Level

I found Media easy as. Got 280/300 for the year, so I scored higher in English and History but unlike those subjects, a near perfect result in Media took very little effort and was never in doubt. For the final exam in June, due to a heavy exam schedule I only had time to revise the day before but with my good essay writing skills I scored 90/90.

I do environmental science at the moment along with geography, biology and chemistry.

haha I took Maths last year and failed epically.

I've been told to do something like Media/Film Studies but theyre really not me. Critical Thinking sounds good too.

I'll just weigh up my options and speak with my tutor in the summer. Thanks for answers, my tutors and friends are quite biased towards science so good to have some input from others too =]

Could you explain what your doing exactly, as in are you doing a gap year and getting extra qualifications?

What sort of work did you have to do ? Is there a lot of coursework?

All media students I know tend to be on facebook all day in college bored and getting sent home around 1pm..

But, looking at your subject list I'd personally recommend physics if science is what your in to. It'll be hard, but you did say you didn't mind failing.

Ok thanks very much. That helped a lot

Thanks, yeah I did think about physics but my maths let me down so much last year I don't think the college will even let me do it lol.

My college has bought in a new policy this year that if they think your going to fail they'll give you a couple of warnings to get your act together and then kick you out of the course. Yeah my college sucks lol (also trying to bring detentions in which is ridiculous!).

I'd agree with the people that have said Media - its very easy.
You do have to do work, after all it is an AS level, but to be honest a monkey could do it - so far this year i've drawn some storyboards, written a blog and picked whats the characters in our mini film are going to wear and give reasons why - eg he will wear a long dark coat, to make him look mysterious :P and im on track for an A. So yeah, if your looking for easy (but not necessarily respected), i'd say Media!

No harm in asking.

I'm just trying to think of another sciency subject you could do. Closest I can think of is Psychology. Sorry for being no help lol

Sociology is basically an easier version of psychology.

If you like Psychology but dont want that amount of work, the first year of Communication Studies is bascially psychology but applied to real life so you dont have to memorise studies and loads of names (you do have to know a few different theorists but nothing like the amount for Psychology). the course work is quite big but easy if you pick an interesting topic that you enjoy. i had loads of fun on this course and found it a nice break from my other subjects which were more 'academic'

That sounds good. I'll ask around my college because I haven't heard of that subject before. I don't mind a big bit of coursework as when I get into it I become an essay whizz lol.
