Health and social persuasion

Hey everyone. I’m sorry I’ve been posting so much lately, it might be getting annoying , so sorry again. However thanks to those who have helped me with my situation.

I’m wondering what to say to convince my parents to let me take health and social care for gcse. Just like what the topic covers and how it may largely benefit someone who aspires to become a therapist.

Thank youuu 🤍🤍🤍

Hey, I don't know about the GCSE for the subject but I did level 3 health & social care diploma and applied science and got into a BSc course as I got good grades and they both had human biology modules which I got high marks in (unis sometimes ask about modules).

Your best bet is asking someone who is either a student at your school who studies it or the teacher who teaches it if you want the specifics of the GCSE. (Sorry if this isn't very helpful!)

No you’re perfectly fine. I have asked the head of department at my school and my HOY cuz she teaches it. They think it would be useful but my parents wouldn’t let em take it. I’m trying to get it changed from sports science to H&S but who knows what will happen. 🤷🏼*♀️

Thank you so much. Have a good day 💗💗
