Sixth form or apprenticeship

I’m struggling to decide whether to leave sixth form for an apprenticeship can anyone help ?
If you can't decide I'd go for the apprenticeship. You can always go back and get Alevels later. Alot of apprenticeships have an age limit and are only offered to young people.

Work experience is way more valuable than Alevels.

Well yeah because you get a job at the end of it and earn money. Unless you have a burning passion to study a particular subject it's better to just go for the apprenticeship. Once it's over and you're earning money at your job you can then decide if you want to go back to college to study something else if you don't like it.

Thank you I think I will apply for an apprenticeship. I was looking and university doesn’t really help you to become a car mechanic
