How should pupils approach choosing their A levels?

Choosing Sixth Form subjects is a tricky business, particularly if a pupil's interests are broad. In order to frame discussions on which subjects to pick, pupils should start by asking themselves four simple questions:

  1. Which subjects interest me the most? 
  2. Which subjects am I good at?
  3. Do my proposed subject choices work together?
  4. Which subjects are required to access my desired options beyond school? 

The first two considerations are arguably the most important: if someone is interested in a subject, they are far more likely to excel in it.
