A Level Choices

I was wondering how many job opportunities would be available for me if I picked biology, chemisty, psychology and geography. Thanks in advance!
Loaaaads. Most of the time, these days, a levels and degrees can lead to all kinds of funky job choices. Employers are all about 'transferable skills' rather than specific A levels per se (unless you want to be a brain surgeon or something). Just do subjects you enjoy and think you'll do well in. And for the love of all things holy, stay on top of your work. I am speaking from experience.

Good luck dude x

Plus the ones that just need a general degree :smile: This is assuming you're planning on going to uni?

Skills that can be used in a variety of different areas. For example, in history you learn analytical skills but this can also be useful in marketing.
