What subjects go well with Sociology and RE in a Levels??


I'd say anthropology, if you can find somewhere that provides the course. It fits well with both subjects and looks at most of the same aspects as both sociology and RE.

If you can't find anthropology then a lot of sociology overlaps with psychology, maybe try that. Philosophy and government and politics would most likely work too.

This is of course my opinion as somebody who has previously studied A-Levels. Feel free to message me back/reply :smile:

Usually, A-Levels require C+ in maths. However, check with individual course tutors/providers (colleges and their subject tutors) to see if they can move the goal posts a little. The best way to do this is by attending open days and being open minded with courses. :smile:

What were your other GCSE grades? English and science, mainly.

English B but i i was forced into doing Btec science because i got a grade C for my mock personally i was confused as to why i was being put into btec because i mean a grade c is still a pass my grades were fine in year 10 but i got another teacher for science which was a specialist in btec science so she figured to leave me in btec as she told me and other students in my class. i tried going to my science head dept but they didnt do much about it so i gave up on science and got level 2 pass :frown:

You didn't do BTEC alongside your GCSE science?

The B is fine, and the C should be too. Go to a few open days and be open minded with courses. Don't be afraid to talk to the lectures and explain your position, I'm sure they'll be willing to help. :smile:

Psychology, history, english literature, biology, geography, law, anthropology, communication and culture and I can't think of any more. It depends on what your sixth form offers.
