Has anyone got experience with doing these subjects at A-Level, and can tell me how they fun/boring they were, how time consuming they were, how/if they worked together, and other general things about them? I'd be grateful for any advice or information, or just hearing how you guys found them (especially if you did all three!). In fact, even general sixth form life advice would be appreciated.
I'm currently in year 11 so will soon be going into sixth form and now that I think about it, I am definitely procrastinating revision for my GCSEs by stressing about my A-level options and writing this post. Anyway: I am thinking of going into some sort of creative career - film/photography/art-ish... I'm not too clear on what I want to do with my life, but if anything, I think it will probably be in that sort of direction.
When I have told people what A-levels I am thinking of doing (Art, History of Art, Classical Civilisation), I have had some responses like "oh, lucky. Those are nice, chilled A-levels", and also my grandfather told me they will not help get me any kind of job, and then he asked me why I wasn't doing any of the "hard subjects".
Are they really considered easy, laid-back subjects? I know that people tend to think art A-Level is easier than it actually is, but what about Classical Civilisation and History of Art A-level?
