Holla everyone :)

I just want to know what you all are taking because I, of course, have no idea. I only have IT in mind :/

I've not really thought about what options to take because I've mainly been applying for apprenterships to do with IT, so if you can post it will be great, I just need advise really.

You should do what I did if your 6th form/college allow you and wait for your GCSE results before picking your options. If you want an apprenticeship with a local firm related to IT or something then the best thing you can do is see a connexions officer or get in contact with local firms you're interested in.

I left college in June and I took Accounts, Business, ICT and dropped Computing in Year 12. Computing was really crap imo and so was Accounts. I recommend ICT and Business though. :)

ICT
Double Business Studies.
I've never did Business before at GCSE but you dont need a GCSE in it for A Level. My friends in Year 13 said it's really fun and easy enough. Plus I kinda wanna go into business or ICT in the future (:

i did both history and english lit in year 12 too :8 wonder what i got

Fehm
20-07-2009, 01:49 PM
Im doing, Economics... ICT... English Language and Music :P:P

Business Studies is boring.. Its just writing letters theres not that much business in there tbh, well not the course I did... Thats why I chose Economics instead, because thats more finance and how the worlds economy works and improves, and obviously disintegrates (The credit crunch).... Media's based around Newspapers, Promotions, Camera Angles in movies, how to write an article and the rest of it, Could be useful if you want to ginto the world media I suppose. e.g. Journalism, TV Director/Presenter whatever...

GOOODLUCK!

I'd like to think so, haha. No idea in history as it was 100% exam, taken in June so I'm still awaiting results. In English Literature 40% of it was Coursework which I got an A in so hopefully the exam went alright :D

I'm thinking of taking:

I.T
Media
Travel & Tourism
Science & Society

The subjects which are in bold means I need more information. I never attended any open evenings so I'm clueless what I would we doing in Travel and Science & Society.

I like Travel & Tourism - would the course be concentrated on advertising a holiday destination? idk.

Science & Society - I heard it's easy but have no idea what it is.

Help me +rep :)
