Hi ladies!

I need evidence of recent study and not sure what to take!

I fancy A level Sociology or Psychology, and I can start this immediately.

However, will OU Human Biology look better on my application? With this though I have to wait til Nov this year to start.

What would you chose??

Many thanks for any advice!

PS - Has anyone done OU Human Biology?????

As it is eveidence of recent study you need, then I would go with whichever course interests you most. Because you don't need specific grades as such as you obviously already have those.

Doing a course you enjoy will make it eaiser in the long run I would have thought?

I agree, do the one that interests you the most. I have just completed my access course and loved biology and psychology, but wasn't quite so keen on sociology. However, some of my friends on the course preferred sociology to psychology.

Research the subjects and go for the one you feel you understand the most or you find really interesting.

Good luck. xx

Hiya! I agree with the other ladies, go for what you are interested in you'll feel far more motivated. I'v always found Physcology very interesting, my sis is doing this at the mo to get her quals for nursing. Good luck with which ever you choose! xx

I agree too, do whatever interests you the most, i have an interest in psychology too.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Hi ladies, think you are right and it was what I was thinking too, I know I will really struggle if I have less interest in a course!
Am thinking of A level Psychology now! Have had an interest in counselling etc for a while too, so even if I never get to be a midwife then this will be something useful and interesting to have done!
many thanks again

Thank you all so much, am so excited about it all now! Daft really I can't get to sleep at night as my head is so full of it all, I am wearing myself out!

(My little boy deciding to wake up at 5am each morning does not help... little treasure....!!)
