Advice needed please on suitable uni courses when doing maths, physics and Law A levels

[Monr0e]

DS is currently in his first year at 6th form, he recently did his mocks in his subjects, Maths, Physics and Law, and did quite poorly, CCD. He has his reasons, also known as excuses, but the main one being he didn't do any revision towards them and it obviously shows. He is now feeling quite low and not wishing to talk about uni or attending any upcoming open days, we had planned to start having a look after the Easter holidays. A big part of it is he has no clue what he wishes to study or what career he might want, which leaves him even less motivated as he feels he has nothing to work towards. He is, or was, predicted all A's based off his in class assessments and class work and I'm sure this is probably achievable if he puts the work and revision in when his exams come around. However, he still has no clue what uni courses to apply for. So I guess I'm asking for any advice or recommendations on what he could be looking at with the A levels he is doing? He has decided against Law so probably something that ties in with his Maths / Physics that will give him good options when he leaves uni. I work in healthcare so no use to him at all! Thank you very much for any help

The OP says that her DS acknowledges that his performance in this set of exams didn't do him justice ( He is, or was, predicted all A's based off his in class assessments and class work ), so I'd be surprised if these results were to be the sole foundation for his predicted grades for UCAS?

@Monr0e are these the only exams he'll be taking this year, or will he have end of year exams later on?

Depends on school policy. The three I know have predictions round 1 done before the mocks, and then some adjustments after the mocks. Could be different where I am though, and the schools I'm referring to are not run of the mill.

I'd recommend the Insight into University course for Y12s who want to find out about different STEM courses and careers.
It costs £85 and involves about 30 hours of learning and research, which they can do in their own pace over the summer holidays.
They can try taster lectures of different STEM university courses, learn about different careers, and do a project on a topic that interests them. If they complete it they earn a Silver Industrial Cadet award.

He could do a combined maths & x degree? Keeps the options open.

My eldest ds started off studying maths & finance, it seemed almost everyone he met was studying maths alongside something else (stats/chemistry/physics/finance/economics just to name a few).

He ended up ditching maths and switching to accounting with finance, some others he knew switched around during their time also. The stats graduates he knows haven't struggled to find work! There's lot of jobs out there for data analysts/data scientists and it's not badly paid either.

I said it was an objective, not a degree option.
