My ds has to choose his GCSE options this month. He has been told that although it is not compulsory at his school, it is STRONGLY ADVISED to choose a MFL. Ds hates languages and doesn't want to pick one but we have been told that a lot of universitys want you to have taken English, Maths, Science a Humanities subject and a MFL and some only take you if you have.
Is this always the case? I am torn as I want him to take a wide spread of subjects but I also think if he doesn't enjoy it and/or struggles then it is a wasted choice. What to do?!

Could I ask for some advice regarding GCSE options?
