Answer 2

Well, it's completely up to you and what you enjoy, but I'd say that you should do Biology, Chemistry and Maths as this will keep your options open for all three of your current career ideas, so Options 2 or 3. I wouldn't choose 1 or 5 because they both contain 2 subjects which are blacklisted by certain universities (Business Studies, ICT and Accountancy), and if you want to study at a top university some have a list of subjects that you can only have one of to be considered, if that makes sense.



Personally, I think you should go with Option 2, as Biology, Chemistry and Maths will keep your options open, and you obviously want to study ICT as it appears in many of your possible options. It's totally up to you though, so go with what feels right.

Answer 3

thats pretty similar to mine. DO NOT take law, I have heard from SOOOO many people it is a waste of a subject. If you decided to do Law at Uni then they cover the whole two year course content in a month and they sometimes don't even count it as an A-Level. English language would be great as that is a core subject and Uni's love core subjects. Sociology is a good subject if you want a slightly easier option and it's not looked down on in Uni. Photography is a bit of a soft option but it would be good if you want variety. I would suggest sticking to the core subjects so choosing either English, Sociology or Economics. Good Luck.

Answer 4

OPTION 4 for you, definitely. reason is :



chemistry: helps understand medicines and chemicals involved in pharmacy



biology: helps understand how it affects the human body and possible side effects



psychology: very important in pharmacy to understand how people think and different attidues in the world of work



ICT: computers are used everywhere nowadays and it is essential to have ICT skills to cope with daily work and calculations



please think about my explanations and you will see for yourself what i mean. if you are dreaming of pharmacy, then OPTION 4 is the BEST. good luck

Answer 5

I wouldn't bother with General Studies, it's a waste of time and most Uni's won't consider it as a proper A Level anyway.
