So stressed about my options coming up

SO, I would like to do a science related career when i grow up, so I AM planning to do triple science (unless combined better), so that leaves me with two more open options and an EBACC option, I will do french because languages are important and im good at it, possibly geography in demand plus science related, My school also offers further maths and statistics that i might do , im good at maths but not too interested but i will be doing a level maths so if that helps it But it takes up another space, as well as another interesting choices are hostory, im good at essays and possibly cs and pysch, What are your sggestions my 4 options be, thanks

I’m now half way through year 10, I am doing combined science and I’ve understood that combined is not so good because your marks are combined so say you did really well in chem and okay in physics but shart in bio it will weigh your score down giving you a lower grade in science, so you need to put A LOT of effort to do well in it. To answer about a level math I’d say do it if you want to do a level phys to, at the end of the day physics is just math.

Hiya,

I suggest picking subjects that you enjoy and/or would excel in as this is your GCSEs! Picking triple science is a good option but you don't need any other optional subjects to take a science a level and also as maths is complusory). If you did choose environmental science/geology a level - different providers have different requirements - but if it wanted a GCSE it would be geography (as an option subject). Also I am doing biology, chemistry and maths a level if you have any questions about that or something else do ask😊

Hope this helps xx
