Thank you for this. I did not know that some university do not consider BTECs. I did BTEC as that was the only option available in the Colege if you don’t have any qualifications. I did both BTEC Level 2 in Engineering and Science. I always wondered what the the difference between BTEC Science to the GCSE Sciences. With this advice I will try to find a college to do GCSE sciences alongside Maths and English.

my school only allows 2 subjects but you have to pick history or geography which does not count in those 2 options

HI usman. My first language is Arabic and I speak 2 other languages (Swedish and English) I came to the uk in the end of year 8 and I started learn French, but I didn't focus a lot on it because I wanted to learn more English as a beginner. I'm in year 9 now and I started getting some for French so I really want to take it as a gcse subject especially that many universities are more likely to accept someone who speaks 4 languages. My family is telling me to take Arabic instead so I can focus on other subjects such as psychology and triple science etc. I don't know what to do at all I really want to take French as goes and then take Arabic in a level but my family is quite right so what should I do?

Hi Sir. I'm quite confused for my sister. She is 34 currently doing Higher level maths, as she was thinking she wanted for her cv but now she got the job. Does she need higher level maths or is it okay if she does foundation maths? Please let me know what's your opinion. Her work place is good, no need gcse as she has done English gcse already. She is also doesn't hv time now for higher maths study bcz of work. She is confident in foundation level but not higher level.

Hi! Was wondering if I could get some advice, my school only offers Chemistry and Design, I am good at both but my passion is design as I want to be an architect. Do you think it is more important to have triple science or follow design and technology, thanks!

[yorre]

Hello Usman. My school only offers a 3 choices that is not compulsory or a language. I want to do geography, history, PE and comp science but I need to drop one. I want to get into politics A level and I want PE as a break subject, almost as 'fun' time. I excel in geography, often getting above 90% and same goes with comp science. Which should I drop and why?

Hello sir, my daughter was studying in CBSE syllabus till grade 8 and we shifted her this academic yr to IB curriculum as we came to abroad… the school offered 3 compulsory subjects which are English, Maths and double science and 3 choose subjects in which we choose Art & Design, French and Triple science. We don’t know about all you speak and our aim is to peruse her medicine in college so guide me further points if any I need to take in her academics for choosing subjects.
Also the school we joined her gives total of 6 subjects but in your video it shows 8 to 10 subjects so guide me
