Thanks! You seem like rather a bright spark yourself! However, I could be using the Thesaurus tool on MS Word to make up long words :/

I'm not though.

Actually, I just took a sneaky peak at your profile. We're doing three of the same subjects at AS! Good choices, good choices. I'm not doing German though. I suck at languages :(

Aww I love languages, I'm weird like that:) What else did you take, or did you only take three subjects?

I took Politics as my fourth, and I'm dropping English Lit next year. Politics and Psychology are subjects that I really enjoy, and History compliments both of those. All those subjects are essay-heavy though, which I hate.

I sort of regretted not taking a language for GCSE. The school made everyone feel really guilty about it if we didn't; they kept telling us how important they would be and all that.

I'm still not sure whether politics interests me or not:S

I'm so indecisive, I have absolutely no idea what I want to drop next yearD:! Atm I'm also thinking English Lit, despite the fact I love books, the teachers I have are boring me to death!

Well, I got offerred a sort of "Lit and Lang" course for English since I didn't make the grades to do just Lit like I wanted to. Tbh, I'm glad I took the Lit and Lang because the books we get are so much more interesting, plus it is mostly Lit until next year any way, and by the time we start doing Lang I'll've dropped it. I only chose English in the first place because I couldn't think of anything better, which is why I'm dropping it :)

I don't know what I want to do for a career, but I think that sticking with subjects you enjoy is the best policy until then. I imagine I'll try and go for a uni in 2 years, but it rather depends what happens between now and then in terms of tuition fees.

For me, Politics is just fascinating. It is all very well bitching about what a bad job politicians do, but having studied it I've come to realise all the reasons why it has to be the way it is. I'd love a career in that, but it's a long and difficult road to the top :s

Well if you enjoy it then it definitely seems like a good idea:) Plus it's hard to get the top of any good career, so liking it should make it easier. I'm thinking of studying German at uni, since it's my favourite subject and the job prospects are amazing:D
