Hi. Tomorrow is GCSE results day, and I'm gonna have to star enrolling into sixth forms and colleges. The only problem is that I keep on changing my mind on what subjects that I wanted to study.
Originally, when I applied to places, my intent was to study Maths, Further maths, Physics and a fourth subject to drop (usually history). The only problem is I have recently realized the extreme difficulty of all the subjects which I picked and the fact that I never really wanted to do further maths in the first place but was just under pressure to do it. Also, my chances of getting an A* in Maths tomorrow for GCSE are looking pretty slim which makes my chances of studying further pretty low anyway.
The only subject that I know I want to study for certain is Maths, I'm most likely going to study physics, and I have had my mind on it for a long time, but recently some skepticism has arrived because people who have studied it have been telling me it's very difficult and not enjoyable at all.
But even if I do study maths and physics, I still have no idea what to do for a third A2 since I decided against further maths. Generally, I enjoyed maths and physics at GCSE, but I was also really good at the writing subjects. History and English in particular I really enjoyed and was a very high level student in those subjects.
The point is, I feel like a mess, I have no idea what I want to study at Uni or do for a career. I've generally thought about computer science/ engineering and subjects in that area, hence why I picked maths and physics, but I still have no idea what specifically I want to study. I don't know what subjects to pick, and I would really appreciate some advice from A level students regarding useful subjects and subjects that you personally enjoyed. Also, since I don't know what to do in the future, how do I keep my options open?
Thanks!
