I'm currently in Year 11 and wondering what 3rd A level to choose.
I have decided on History and Film studies however I don't know what other A level I should do. I was thinking of doing Criminology, however I won't be taking it further than A-level or (WJEC) so I don't know if I should do it, or a different A level.
I was wondering whether I should do A level Biology (I'm okay at biology and science in general. I study combined science and got 7-6 in my last mocks) or if I should study Applied Science? I don't want to study English or maths for sure. I could do sociology as I am good at it (sort of relates to History). I want to get into a good University and maybe even study abroad so I thought maybe I should go for the more facilitating Biology?
Do you have any recommendations for what A levels I should take.
Also I'm doing my GCSE'S in 2020 so if you have revision tips feel free to tell me!
Thank you.

If you want to choose from lots of degrees, then you should take a combination of subjects that are in demand. Specialist subjects tend to limit choice.
If you know what degree you want to do just make sure your chosen subjects meet the criteria.
If you know what career then consider doing A levels that get you a compatible degree.
Imo film studies is weak, limited and a luxury to study.
History is strong, respected and facilitating.
I would choose another strong preferred subject to neutralise the film studies.
Have a look at these to help you make up your mind.
Careers- See if you can get any of these books at the careers library or they will have similar for you to read. Try and get ones aimed at your age group. If you cant find then just get second hand from Amazon.

Thanks

So would Biology be a better option than Criminology?

One science opens up courses like nursing or geologist.
Do a subject which has the balance between getting a high grade, least effort and is viable for a number of the degrees that interest you.
