A level choices.

Hi, I did not do GCSE history and i dont really enjoy english. But i'm considering becoming a lawyer and studying Law in Uni. Can i do the subjects Psychology, Economics and Politics/Law at alevel since law has no specific subject choices or do i have to do history or english lit in order to study law at University. Thanks

As you say, "law has no specific subject choices". So pick the A levels you think you'll enjoy, and in which you'll get the best grades.

Hi @thatgirlprecious

It is not necessary to do history or English. Most law degrees have no specific subject choices (worth checking with the unis you are interested in just to be safe). Law is competitive as both a degree and as a career so it is important to achieve the highest grades you can at A level. Therefore, you need to do subjects you actually have a passion for and enjoy doing as this will help you have the motivation required to succeed.

I hope this helps and good luck!
