What can I do with these subjects?

Hello,

I am practically in Year 13 right now but I am pretty lost on what to do when I go to university and I'm not sure if I made the right choices for my 3 chosen subjects at the very start of Year 12. I don't know which career pathways these might take me down.

- Computer Science
- Geography
- English Literature

Can someone please give me some potential pathways this combination of subjects could lead to? Thanks.

You can do a law degree. They dont really have specific subject entry requirements. Any undergrad degree can end up in law with a 1 year post grad diploma in law. To be fair, even for a course with subject specific entry requirements, you can always do a foundation year.

A lot of humanity subjects will be open to you. You need to follow your interests, which subject is your favourite? What activities have you done outside of school for your application and which did you enjoy? What kind of career do you want?

PS. Just be aware that a) taking A level CS without A level Maths is very limiting, and b) A level Geography is really useful as Unis often consider it to be a 'science related' and a social science subject.
