Ds has a couple of weeks left to make his A Level decision. I'm very much leaving the decision to him but want to provide some gentle guidance and thinking points and I'm a bit concerned about his choices.
He's decided he wants to be an Accountant and has selected Business Studies, Economics and Accounting.
I've already had the discussion with him that some Unis will require Maths for an Accounting/Finance degree so this may limit him - but he's adamant he doesn't want to do Maths (despite it being one of his best subjects, he's just got his early GCSE results and had A). Also spoken about keeping his options open - but in typical teen style he's supremely confident that his future career is mapped out as an Accountant and of course there's no chance he'll ever change his mind 🙄
How are these for choices do you think? Is there far too much overlap which will massively impact his future options? Is Accounting A Level going to put Unis off? Or will these be fine despite the overlap and many Unis won't mind as long as he gets the required grades?
