Looking for opinions. My daughter is only likely to achieve a 3 in science GCSE (much stronger in other subjects). She is hell bent on doing psychology A level. Her school sixth form will not allow her to do this without a 5 in science. As a result she is going to leave and go to the local sixth form college as they have no mimimum science grade (but do require a 5 in English). I'm suspicious of this and it makes me question wether they are taking the right students who are likely to have success in order to fill the course.
id love to hear the experience of any teachers or parents of A level psychology students in terms of how important success at GCSE science is to succeeding in A level psychology
