A Levels For Law

I want a career in the law sector, through a degree apprenticeship or if not then uni. im stuck between Alevel RE, Sociology, Politics and Spanish. it is recommended that we only do 3 and i am also considering doing an EPQ but i might also sacrifice spanish and do it as an AS level instead. Any advice?

There are no required subjects for Law - you could be doing 3 sciences, it would be fine.
Pick three subjects you will enjoy studying, and where you feel confident of a good grade.

Either RE or Sociology plus Politics and Spanish would leave lots of doors open to you, especially if you want to include Study Abroad or a degree that includes language study :
LLB Law and Spanish | Study at Bristol | University of Bristol
Law (with Spanish Law) LLB | Undergraduate study | The University of Sheffield
Modern Languages and Criminology & Criminal Justice BA (Hons) | Bangor University
etc

I think a good combination is something like history, english literature and politics. Three is more typical usually.

Im not too keen on english and after gcse history i dont want to do it again so ive been looking for others
