      H Maav,
      I did Chemistry Biology and Maths. That is a fairly common combination for the students I teach, but it doesn’t matter too much what your A levels are so long as you do at least two science or science related subjects: Chem, Biol, Maths, Physics, Psychology. I quite like students who have done a humanities A level too, because they are good at writing essays! The only thing to watch out for is that not all courses are quite so flexible as we are in Manchester Life Sciences. Some places insist on particular A levels – Chemistry for instance is required by lots of medical schools.
      Best wishes
      Richard

      Hey Maav,

      I also did biology, chemistry and maths. If you have some idea what kinds of degree you want to do then look at the uni prospectus’ they’ll tell you what they want for each different course, you should have plenty of degree options whichever A-levels you chose!

      I didn’t do A levels per se, as I went to school in Scotland, so we didn’t have them. However I did ‘Highers’ which were our equivalent at the time: English, Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Human Biology and Religious Studies (that last one was just for fun!)
