It is your choice. Think carefully about your interests and plans after leaving college and choose the course(s) which will help you to achieve your goals. For example, if you were thinking about applying for a university course in a particular subject such as Medicine, then this will mean that you would need to choose certain subjects – in this case Biology and Chemistry. For many higher education courses the exact choice of course is not too important but it is always worth talking this through with college staff. If you don’t have a specific career goal at the moment then there is nothing wrong in choosing subjects which interest you and in which you think you will do well.

As part of your enrolment at college we will talk through your course choices with you, so don’t worry if you are finding it hard to choose.
