My DS achieved the following GCSE results:
Maths 6 (one mark off a 7)
German 6 (one mark off a 7)
History 6 (three marks off a 7)
English Lit 6
English Lang 5 (one mark off a 6)
Combined Science 5/5
Food Prep 5
Statistics 4
He has been very unsure about what to do at college but feels like maybe he could give A Levels a go as his results are better than we expected, specifically in English and Maths. He was predicted 7s for German and History and isn't far off those grades. We are getting the scripts for the subjects he was one mark off in.
He's looking at German, Modern History and Law as his choices, although not set in stone.
I'm concerned that although his results are good he will struggle with the step up to A Levels.
Does anyone have any experience with their children or themselves doing A Levels with these kind of GCSE results?
You'll find discussions about A Levels and universities on our Further Education forum.

Will DS be capable of doing A Levels with these GCSE results?
