I would recommend doing RS, Geography, Maths and Government and Politics ss then you have two fascilitating subjects to keep your options open and then two subjects you enjoy and are keen to do for a Level.

But I'll struggle with maths and if you don't get a B minimum then they won't let you do the actual A level. And with Geography well...I DON'T want to go on the field trip and that's the whole reason I am not taking it!!!

Tips for Geography:
Well I just repeatedly read over all my notes loads of times!
I wen to revision classes at school.
I have a revision guide and a workbook..but the workbook came after I got my results:frown:
Look at the mark schemes for Geography as then you'll know what exactly you have to do (e.g. To get 6 marks out of 6 you need 1 level 1 statement, 1 level 2 statement and 1 level 3 statement and you need to do this TWO TIMES!!!) Have a look and it may become easier for you..it hasn't much for me though!!!
Hope that helped:smile: Bye
Any tips or resources for English?

You’re not taking a subject because of a field trip? Are you joking? What’s so bad about the field trip that you’re not taking the subject?

for analysing just keep going deeper and deeper and asking why; why at this point in the text, why has he used similes, other meanings etc
lit is just prep tbh, prep themes, characters, and context, find a way to incorporate it and youll be sick x
