My HONEST AS Level Experience: Politics

[@cocoabutter97]

Just wanted to let everyone know that I studied Government and Politics A-Level and obtained an A* (398/400 overall UMS), and absolutely LOVED Gov P1. Staying up-to-date with current affairs is part of my degree (I study Law at University), and I found the evolving nature of the module really interesting and exciting. Once you get to University, you can't just learn from a textbook and recite old statistics and quotes. This A-Level helped me realise that, and encouraged me develop valuable research skills! :)

[@RevisionWithEve]

+cocoabutter97 don't get me wrong I love staying up to date with current affairs but politics moves so fast that my papers weren't relevant 48 hours after I wrote them!

[@tamarab9525]

i hope you don't mind me asking, but what university do you study law at?

[@cocoabutter97]

Tam Badger Bristol University. I'm going into my third year now :)

[@addiei9261]

I only have to go in to get one exam result (I'm in year 10 and was forced to do statistics for no reason) and I'm still shitting myself. Imagine me next year, I'm gonna be crying about 11+ subjects.

Eve I just wanted to say thank you! Your videos were so helpful during my Leaving Cert (the Irish equivalent to A-levels) and next Monday I'm moving away to go to the university of my dreams. I never really believed they would accept me but my grades were way higher than I expected and part of that is down to you and your videos. Thank you so much Eve 💕

[@jess1999]

I just finished A-Level politics and now at uni doing international politics and security, honestly year 2 was so much better for me, American politics was so much more interesting

[@Cerys-rf5dl]

I do A-level Politics and despite that it is a challenging subject which requires a lot of work, it is interesting. There are some areas that I do not enjoy, such as the uk government section which focuses on things such as the judiciary and the constitution, but other areas I absolutely love such as the topic of ideologies ie liberalism and conservatism. Overall I would encourage people to take it but there are some parts which will bore you to death lmao

[@zainabsheikh4751]

Could you please do a stationary haul and a video explaining how to do mind maps? Loved the video 😘😘😘

[@rayanakesty]

Woah! I had no idea you wanted to be a diplomat! I'm studying at the moment to pass the exam to become a diplomat in my country. Could you make a video about why you want to go into this career? I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see it.

*Hey Eve,* I would love to thank you for everything you're doing for us subscribers (I'm one of them).

You're such an amazing girl; smart, beautiful and kind (I mean I have no negative views to give about you), you're in my opinion my *Dream Girl*. I would've loved to be your friend or be able to meet you one day, *LIKE SO BADLY*, you got me motivated day by day, and because of you I've decided to change... Not to be like you, but to at least try, because gaved me that enough hope to stand up and make some changes before it's too late. I would love to say that I'm more than proud of the success your leading urself to, and I wanna be able to make my family proud as u did to show them that I'm *MORE THAN CAPABLE TO SUCCED*... *THANK U SO MUCH EVE AND KEEP IT UP* *Have an amazing day eveyone!!!*

I'm doing CCEA government and politics and looking at the specification it's literally everything I like about politics. NI Politics and political parties, British politics, British constitution, legal and judiciary system in U.K., comparing the politics of the U.K. & Ireland and understanding Communism, Socialism and Conservatism.

[@elliecassidy9496]

I've chosen to study politics at A-level and I know I'll really enjoy it! Maybe your dislike for GOVP1 came from your teacher and the lack of interesting lessons. I personally think I'll really enjoy GOVP1 purely because I like subjects which are constantly updating and moving along (I'm also a bit of a crammer so cramming new statistics is ok for me! I know cramming is the best technique but it's worked in the past haha). At least you'll be a bit happier and have a weight off your shoulders now you've dropped Politics! Btw just wanna say thankyou for your GCSE advice, helped me to get all A*s!

Apart from that thank you so much for this though! I was debating taking politics at A level because I want to do a similar thing as you. What do you think about taking law? Xx

[@empty4012]

law is a very 'iffy' subject, not many sixth forms offer it so literally no law based university course requires it (if you plan to go into a law degree). Law teachers can also be very hard to come by, so unless you have 1 committed teacher or 2-3, I wouldn't recommend it.

[@kat.m1995]

Ah okay Thank You. struggling with what to pick for a-levels. What do you think would be a better subject for going on to a law degree?

[@empty4012]

Moonlight gem 123 I say maybe history, since that'll show that you can write an essay, or maybe psychology or sociology, I don't have the best input though since I'm leaning towards a history degree for myself

Hello comment section, I am currently in year 11 (starting my A Levels in September) and currently, I’ve applied to do Maths, Physics and Computer Science. However, due to all the thinking time I’ve had recently, I kind of want to pick a 4th subject and I’m between Politics (which I have an interest in) and Further Maths (which would massively help my chances of getting into a top uni and it compliments my other choices). Can I have some advice on my situation please? That could be deciding between the two or simply sticking with just the 3... Thanks in advance!
