    I can't wait to start A Levels in September. I decided to choose English Literature, Health and Social Care and Sociology with Media as a backup if I can't get into Sociology :)

    Thank you so much, lovely! You're one of the few people I've seen genuinely reassuring people and conveying that sixth form is manageable and not the impossible hell that others try to spread as truth. This is so comforting and makes me feel much more at ease!

      Im going sixth form in a week. I told my teachers i wanted to do law as a career. He told me that
      1) unis dont value law a level much
      2) law is competetive so pick core A level subjects such as : English , maths, sciences (not psychology) and history
      3)a core a level subject will help u so much when going to study law at uni.
      4) Unis strongly dislike when students study law at a level

    im thinking about doing economics for a level (i need to choose by october) but i didnt do it at gcse. what is economics like at a level? what ratio of maths:essays type work is it? is it lots of debating in lessons or more learining concepts and content? thanks

    @zainabchats3630 3 роки тому +3

    • @graceariya
      @graceariya  3 роки тому +1

      ahhh i can’t compare as i’ve never done business gcse, but my understanding is that business focuses more on the insides of an individual business, whereas economics is much more broad, looking at economies and economic policies for whole countries etc!! i know a couple people that have taken business gcse and picked up economics at alevel and have really enjoyed it + been successful 😌✨

    • @Ryan-mm1oj
      @Ryan-mm1oj 3 роки тому +3

      I don’t do either of these subjects but my school doesn’t do economics or business at gcse but you can pick it up at A level without any background knowledge so you could definitely pick economics up if you wanted.
