can someone help me out 😭 i have to confirm my subject choices but i’m indecisive and not sure. i want to do law at uni (preferably a russell group uni) and i’m thinking of taking history for sure but i’m not sure about my other 2 subjects.
i am debating whether to do english literature or not, it seems really hard and i like english but i don’t know if i’ll be dedicated enough and history already seems hard enough. i’m torn as it is also a respected alevel and could help a lot with skills. i was thinking of doing psychology too but i’ve seen a lot of people say it isn’t interesting or fun, but i want to try something new? since i’ve already done sociology at gcse, however sociology seems more chill.
so i’m not sure if i should do 2 facilitating subjects and struggle, or do 1 facilitating subject then 2 others (sociology and psychology).
the unis i want to go to don’t have preferred subjects but i just want to be safe, i’d rather get the grades needed.
thank you

History is hard but so is English lit! Personally I’m doing English lit, history and English language (only because I rly enjoy English lol)
As long as you have essay subjects like history, and English lit, ur good to go.
Maybe a third option like psychology would be good to show you’re also good with maths/science.
2 facilitating subjects are preferred.
I’m worried about hisotry tho because it seems SOOO long lmao

Sociology, History and Psychology are all essay subjects - which helps with Law but you will be doing a lot of writing (even if you do lit) - hope you are ready for it!

Law does not require any specific subjects - just high grades.
So pick the 3 subjects where you feel the most confident of A grades.
PS. 'Facilitating Subjects' was a concept that was dumped by RG Unis 2 years ago : https://www.theguardian.com/educatio...s-subjects-hit

english lit a level is hard, involves a lot of reading but you should be ok if you do lots of practice essays. i'd only take it if you think you'd enjoy it though. i really enjoyed a level psychology, it's not too hard and i found it very interesting. probably best to research the specifications of the subjects you think you're taking and see which one appeals to you the most. i've a friend who's doing law and politics and he did bio, chem and politics at a level so as long as you've got at least one essay based subject you'll be fine.

if someone's A-Levels were less essay related subjects, they wouldn't really be showing a possibility to be doing the essays nd arguments that Law requires

Oxford asks for essay subjects and Cambridge states essay subjects are useful preparation - if someone's A-Levels were less essay related subjects, they wouldn't really be showing a possibility to be doing the essays nd arguments that Law requires
