Options: Advice for Students

The decision regarding where and what you study Post 16 is an important one, and you will need to ensure that all options are considered carefully so that you can make an informed decision.

 In making your decision you should consider a range of factors:

• Interest in the subject. Remember that even if you have studied a subject at GCSE, A Level courses in some subjects are very different from their GCSE counterparts.  Some A Level subjects are not options at GCSE, and so you should find out what they involve.
• Consider the grades that your subject teachers have predicted you (each subject has different entry criteria). Reflect on whether you are choosing the options that you are likely to succeed in.
• Make careful assessment of your aspirations, personal strengths, and other skills and interests that you have. Ask yourself whether you have the ‘soft skills’ required for each course.  
• If you already have a career path/higher education course in mind, ensure you are choosing the right subjects that will leave this door open for you.
