My son is about to start his A Levels and is planning on studying Computer Science, Digital Photography and Maths. However he is very dyslexic and I am concerned about the maths. He got a 7 in his GCSE but I am just not sure if it will be just too much for him at A level - he approaches maths in shall we say a 'creative' way and is not at all systematic in his approach! He would like to study someting to do with computers at uni (maybe computer graphics / animation - he is very artistic - A* at GCSE) but we are concerned that although maths would be ideal to keep his options open (he is also interested in Mechatronics) it might just be just too demanding knowing his learning style? But if he doesn't take maths - then which subject should he consider? Anything with lots of writing is challenging of course! He is at this stage unsure - both about his ability to take maths and what else he should consider! Any suggestions?
