A level choice advise

I submitted my sixth form application and for my options I did bio, psych, and english lit. for university i was thinking of doing law, neuroscience, or psychology. i know its all different fields but i feel like these options all contribute towards these options. i was thinking of doing politics instead of english lit but isnt english lit more appealing towards law? politics seems really interesting and could be something im passionate about, but im not sure. i was also thinking of doing an epq

do you think these 3 subjects appeal to law and psych?

Hi there! (:

Sounds like some great options you have for a-levels to cover what your looking to do, id reccomend having a look over entry requirements from a few different unis for each course just to ensure you would be able to do these!! - any universities your specifically looking at especially as entry requirements do differ slightly along with preferred/required subjects - that way you have a bit more of an idea the option you would have with your subjects😊

best looking into it in a bit more detail, seeing specifically if the universities your looking at do prefer english lit - your always able to email universities with any enquries around entry requirements!, if your finding english to be something you really need to do, you could always maybe see about doing your epq on an area of law you find interesting so you get best of both (:

hope this helps a bit, best of luck!! <33

For law, there aren't really any specific subjects you'd need to study. I'm doing law right now, and I did maths, biology and geography at A-level. I'd just suggest checking the websites for the universities you intend to study at to see what their entry requirements are.
