When we apply for our sixth forms after the November mocks, do we state our options?

Your options are confirmed only after the results day when the colleges know who will join. Don't be in rush but try to make a decision now. Look at what unis want for the course you want to study and what is beings taught on each of the a levels you are interested about.

i think it's a bit late if you apply after the november mocks. most schools close their sixth form application by october

It can be true for some private school but certainly not generally. The closing date is about in the end of January, grammar schools in December. But it really varies, some open their applications only on GCSE results day.

It's usual to accept one on results day and let any others know so they can offer the place to someone else.
