Just got 91/100 on my Maths mock! Could've gotten at least 95 if I hadn't dropped stupid marks. Hopefully I'll get an A* over both papers :smile:
I'm intending to do LAW at university.
What AS-Level courses should i take? (Not Law)


WJEC aka Zero Resources Exam Board

I'm doing Of Mice and Men and Animal Farm, but knowing the themes of each chapter/section really helps. Re-read the books minimum 2 times before the exam, knowing your way around the book can be a time saver! Whichever book is the 'optional' book where you don't talk about context despite it being a lit paper, the question will be based on a theme or character importance. Learn them all!


Okay, thanks! :biggrin:

There are no set requirements for law but you probably want essay subjects like history or english literature

I'm completely puzzled about my A-Levels.

I'm a science-y guy, and I'm aiming for some sort of engineering at a good University, so I'm currently definitely going to do the following:
Maths A2
Physics A2
The part that I'm stuck on is whether or not to do Further Maths with that, because I am not sure if I'm actually smart enough to do Further Maths A-Level, or even just to AS. I am currently predicted an A* at GCSE, but in my mock I got an A and have been doing badly in every other test, so I get B, A*, B, A*. This is really confusing me, because I don't know whether or not I'm smart enough to do Further Maths A-Level. I currently do Further Maths GCSE, but find it pretty hard, and am predicted an A.
My other 2 A-Levels that I'm thinking of doing are Electronics or Computing, but I have never studied either of them, and have no GCSEs for them. I really like the sound of Computing as I think ti would be cool to be able to code/program, and would be a handy skill for later life, and for Electronics, well, I think it looks pretty cool to be able to build the actual objects that surround us.
I'm only allowed to do 4 A-Levels, so what are the 2 best out of the 3 A-Levels that I have suggested for an Engineering focus? Or even suggest another A-Level that I could do instead of Computing/Electronics?
Anybody else applied for 5 alevels? I'm predicted to get 7a*s and 5as. What about you guys?
