GCSE Options =/

Hii everyone
i chose my GCSE Options a few weeks ago, and im regretting them D:

we had to choose
English Lang + Lit
Maths
a type of Science, i chose Additional
and I.T

I then chose
French
History
R.S
+ Food
and i am really regretting Food, and want to do Geography instead
but i asked to change and the teachers said no
and im so stressed right now
:/ x
why would someone ever choose food? is that even a gcse? o_o

anyways...have your parents talk to the school.
why did the teachers say no? if its just not possible for you to do geography due to timetabling, then fair enough. but if they're just being lazy then thats ridiculous

Maybe one would like to uptake a career in catering?

It's probably just another name for home economics.

Unless there's no timetable slot get your parents to phone in! You'll regret not doing it in the long run, most people I know who took food regret it lol :P

That's ridiculous! I changed media to history about a month into year 10! It's not too late, its either a timetabling issue or just laziness. If it is timetabling, maybe you could see if you could do three sciences instead? Universities will be a lot more favourable to someone who has done seperate sciences.
