      I did double award science, english, maths, geography, art, textiles, PE, and french. Most of them I had to do but the ones where I got a choice I just picked the ones that I enjoyed.

      Maths, English Language, English Literature, Physical Science (physics + chemistry), Biology, French, Drama, Geography and History.

      There wasn’t a lot of choice at our school – I think I just chose the subjects I was most interested in – it was a long time ago!

      Wow, let’s remember, 20 years down the line…

      English Language
      English Literature
      Art
      History of Art
      Religious Studies

      Business Studies
      Maths
      Biology
      Chemistry
      Geography

      I chose them either because they were compulsory, or I was interested in them.

      Hi, I did maths, science and english (all because we had to). I also did history (as we had to choose either history or geography and I found history much more interesting). I did french (again had to choose either french or german and I was better at french), art – because I really enjoyed it even though I wasnt that talented!, IT (because I thought it might be useful to get better computer skills) and child development (because I thought it would be easy – it was) 🙂

      Biology, chemistry, physics, maths, advanced maths, French, Spanish, English language, English literature, Geography, theology.

      Maths, english and a language were compulsory at my school but I picked the sciences, Geography and theology cos I was good at them and interested in them. I was already thinking of being a scientist, but my school was really good at encouraging people to do a good mix in case you changed your mind later.
