My daughter started 6th form last month. Study A Level Biology, A Level Art and double Business (btec diploma 2 A Level equivalent)
Shes had a great start to Art and Business but just had first short test after only 3/4 weeks and she got an E. Teachers are advising her to maybe drop biology and concentrate on art and business as they think she will struggle with biology. (she got a b and c grade at gcse science) They suggested she do business and Art over the next 2 years and then if she wishes to do biology in her 3rd year? She wanted to do physiotherapy at uni so needs the biology.
so should she drop it or try and stick with it?? Help please. Would a destinction in Btec business and a good grade in art get her into university???

If this was my dd, I would actually suggest she drops the art and keeps the biology, if she wants to do physiotherapy then she needs to stick with it, simple as that really,
