Any facilitating subjects. History and English Lit will both be beneficial though.

I want to do Law too. I'm doing Religious Philosophy, English Literature, Spanish and Politics.

I'd recommend definitely one from English Literature and History- both if you want! Though they're similar fields and if you want to do one to show off more versatility go for it!

Avoid doing more than one 'soft' subject, or doing any blacklisted. So don't do Dance, Health and Social Care, Media studies or Film studies.

Avoid doing Law A Level.

Languages are always useful.

Throw in maths or a science if you want, to show logical thinking. Any one of the four would be good.

Good luck!

I guess, it's so hard to decide! Definitely biology and chemistry! It's so hard because I love lots of subjects I do for GCSE.

People think I'm insane wanting to do them four. I'd like to he a dentist, and they are my favourite subjects.

What are you wanting to be when you're older?
Any people interested in Maths/ICT/Computing A levels? I'm new :tongue:

I know what you mean because except for one, I'm willing to do any of the subjects I'm doing for GCSE and then some, does that make me sound like a nerd?

I want to be a forensic scientist but I'm starting to seriously consider computer/software engineering. I thought of doing four A-levels not 3 A-levels and 1 AS but I dunno, I'm not that good enough at handling stress.

I know this might be far off but do you already have a prospective(?) uni?

Currently, my top choices/Set of A-levels are biology, chemistry, maths and history but, i dunno, I'm becoming to rethink my career choice to engineering or something, quite horrible considering applications and personal statements are being sent out to other schools.

What career are you thinking of doing?
