Hi, everyone. I am so confused about my alevel choices. If I want to study accounting at university, which subject should I choose? Can I choose alevel maths, further maths and business? Is it a right choice?

Hope someone can help me, thank you. 🙂

For accounting there are no specific A level requirements but maths, further maths and business is ideal

Those options seem alright. :smile:
Check UCAS and pick a range of about 10 unis and see what they all ask for. My college offers A-Level Accounting so there's always that. Your current options is very maths heavy so maybe check out something different or do an EPQ. Unis love EPQs.

There are no requirements for Accounting at uni, but they do love facilitating subjects: a list of these can be found here http://www.clare.cam.ac.uk/subjectchoice-alevelchoice/.

I'd say that your current choices are a good mix given that you enjoy, and perform well, at maths. Else, I'd suggest an alternative to further, like a science subject perhaps.
