Things to ConsiderL3 BTEC/Cambridge Nationals• Different type of qualification
– not easier!• Different style of assessment• Include Exams
GRADES vs SUBJECTS• For many university courses
getting the best grades is more important than studying specific subjectsPlay to your strengths! Pick subjects you will do well in
SPECIFIC A LEVEL REQUIREMENTS• Some University courses do
require specific subjects – if you still need HIGH GRADES in these subjects consider if it’s really for you – be realistic
BTECs• Some pathways prefer BTEC
type qualifications – find out!
Programmes Can Be Mixed• A Level• BTEC/Cambridge Nationals• Recognised by Universities
and Training Providers
Do your research!

Our advice to students:
Choose what you enjoy, what you will want to get up to study on a rainy November morning!
Play to your strengths, not to what you feel you ought to study
Most importantly…… make informed choices
