A-Level English Literature or Psychology?

I’m supposed to be choosing my subjects in 2 weeks and im still unsure if i should take English Lit or Psychology. I’d like to know which one is more interesting or easy so that I wouldn’t have to be so stressed? I’m thinking about being a Primary School Teacher in the future, so which one would help me achieve that career?

Literature.

Is there any reason why i should choose Literature?

I would recommend it as even though it is quite a hard subject it will allow you to go to university as it is more respected than psychology.

More respected? What makes you say that

as someone who has done both English lit and psychology, I strongly recommend psychology and only going for English if you really and truly love the subject. I found that at times English lit can be really draining and leads to the occasional mental breakdown here and there. (but with that being said I am a perfectionist).

psychology is really interesting and for me it was the easiest subject out of the 3 I chose. I loved the content and if you just keep ur notes and revision up to date, I don't see why you wouldn't get an A or A*.

As for which subject is more respected? it actually doesn't matter. TRUST ME. Do whatever you love and don't be swayed by the so called 'respectability' of a subject.

I hope this helped xx

As it is a harder course they appreciate that you would of done the qualification and it is also a requirement for some university’s just to get into a course.

I’d say do psychology 😌 I didn’t take English Lit so I can only speak for psychology. Unless you need English for the course you’ll do at uni I wouldn’t take it. Psychology is very interesting and since you wanna be a primary school teacher I’m sure you’d be interested in the child psychology topic

i saw there's a lot to take in, do you think that'll be tough? is there any tips you could give me?

Well do you know what exam board you’ll be doing?

i'm doing AQA

Ahh I acc did OCR but from my understanding AQA doesn’t require you to know as much so you’ll be fine. Like in OCR we had to memorise 20+ studies I don’t believe you do that in AQA. I’d definitely say stay on top of your work don’t let it pile up. Psychology is only hard if you make it hard for yourself.
