Which subjects should I choose?
Entry to many careers and training programmes requires specific subject qualifications. Before
deciding on a course, students will need up-to-date information about job and training requirements.
For those students who do not know where their studies are heading it is important to try to keep
your options open. If you do not have any clear idea where your studies may lead you it is important
to discuss your future plans with the careers advisor or guidance counsellor, as all subject choices
have implications for future careers.
A broad range of subjects is available for Level 2, but a much narrower range of subjects is available
for Level 3. Check that, if you intend to continue your studies at Level 3, you know what previous
study is required and include the necessary subjects in your Level 1 and Level 2 courses.
