If your child is reasonably bright and at a good school, can you tell me if they will be expected/are expecting to do 3 or 4 subjects, now that AS Levels are largely going? (Not counting those doing Further Maths or General Studies here.)
DD's school surprised me by saying they needed to do 4 - even if essay subjects - but dd now saying she's only going to do 3 as there only 3 she really wants to do and better to get 3 good results than 4 mediocre ones.
But will decent unis expect 4 now? Or at least 3.5?
What will most Year 11s be doing? National guidance seems unclear.
Thank you...

Bright child, good school, Year 11, got to choose A Levels. Tell me - 3 or 4?
