I've heard that A-Level combinations are just as important as the grades you achieve in the exams, and at the moment, I'm a little confused about what A-Levels I should choose in order to (hopefully) study Psychology at University in the future.
For definite, I want to study Psychology and Biology for A-Levels, but I don't know what other A-Levels I could take that would complement well with these subjects. I'm aware that the sciences and also Maths are highly recommended for psychology courses, however, the most I'm willing to do is Biology, because Chemistry, Physics and Maths aren't subjects I particularly enjoy at GCSE, so I wouldn't really want to do them at A-Level.
But, I am considering more 'humanities' based subjects as options, in particular, History, Sociology and possibly also English Lit.
History I do at GCSE, and is probably one of my best subjects, hence why I want to study it at A-Level. I find the content interesting and like the essay writing aspect, which I'm quite strong at, but I'm not sure if it would be suitable with my other subjects?
Sociology is another one I'm considering, because it seems to complement Psychology well, and I've been reading a bit about it. It could also interest me as a potential A-Level option, however, I am slightly apprehensive about it because I keep seeing it being presented as a 'soft' A-Level, that isn't highly respected?
English Lit I do well in at GCSE, I also find it a fascinating subject and thoroughly enjoy writing essays and improving my writing over time. I also enjoy analysing language too, but I don't know if it would help much with Psychology.
I should add that I also do Economics at GCSE so that may also be an option at A-Level, considering there is some maths in that course which could help maybe? Probably not but because I have prior knowledge it could be easier for me.
Can anyone suggest which A-Levels, either out of this selection or any other subjects, could match well with Psychology and Biology???
