I really want to study Digital Media at Middlesex University (I am not sure what my Insurance is going to be at the moment, possibly London Metro or UEL?) and I was wondering which A-Level I should study.
Considering I want to study Media at University and my course teaches us about things like video game and internet culture, social media, web design, HTML and everything in-between, should i do History of Art or Business A-Level?.
some info:
I already know I want to study Film Studies (self study) and Media Studies at A-Level.
I am just below average in Maths (got 31% in my Year 10 exam) and I am predicted a 4 in my GCSE but I have a lot of common sense.
I have never done or even experienced either of these A-Levels before and I have no idea what to expect from either of them ( I have a general idea but I'm still a bit unsure)
I really do not want to do an A-Level that is too Maths intensive or do a subject where Math is an important part of the course. Should I still do Business?.
I like Art, but I hate making Art ( I regret Art GCSE), I have never studied History of Art in an academic context, I like contemporary (post-1899) art but I don't really care for anything before this period. Should I still do Art History?
I am not very good at memorising long terminologies or remembering a lot of dates at all, I can remember key terms and general things like that but I am not good when it comes to regurgitating.
Business is Edexcel
History of Art is AQA.
some things to consider:
Which one goes well with Media and Film Studies?
Which one makes more sense for my course?
Which one would be more valuable for a career in Social Media?
Which one is less memory based and more application based?
What is your experience with any of these a-levels?, would you recommend I even do them?, I don't plan on applying to any Russell Groups as none have the course I want to study so I don't really care about reputation.
I am going into Sixth Form next year (I'm in Year 11) So I have a while to decide but it will be helpful to know soon so I can prepare for next year. Thanks for any replies
