I am thinking of taking both English language and literature at sixth-form college as two separate A levels. Does anybody know if universities will actually count this choice as two separate A levels or just as one because they might see them as too similar? Would I be better off choosing the combined English option?

Which one is more useful and valued more by unis?

(I’m also doing maths, economoics and art)

Any comments appreciated.

I am currently a year 11 and have to choose my A levels. I want to do psychology and biology and i don’t know what else.
I was thinking of English language but don’t know what the course involves. Can someone give me some information on the subject please and what it involves.
Thanks

Thanks but you’ve gave me the wrong information, You have just told me about english literature which is a different subject to take. i want to do english language. which so far im guessing its about english in general and writing essays and has a mixture of different stuff.

I’m starting a sixthform college in september.

I got an A in my English Language GCSE, however I did not do so well in my Literature exam [I got a C, it was a really bad day for me and that showed in my result].

The sixth form i’m attending has very high expectations and because of the fact I did not get a high enough grade in Literature, I might not have the chance to do English Language at A level.

If this is of any importance the AS exams i am going to be taking are:
Government and Politics
History
Sociology
and
Theology [If i cannot do english language at the sixthform]

Will this effect my chances of doing English Language at University?

I haven’t decided whether or not that’s what i want to do at university, but it’s a possibility.

Thank you for your time.

But this sixth form requires a B at English Literature GCSE as well as Language.
It’s at the top of the league table of london colleges:

so i’m not surprised that they have high entry requirements.

i need to know all of the terminology for A level English literature and language. Websites would be best however names of books would also be useful.

I am considering a career in the media and I am in the process of choosing A Level subjects, I know i could take both but which one is better generally?

I really can’t decide what course to choose at A level
its either english literature or english Language.

I know literature is more reading and then writing about what you read.
and then language, is more writing but im not sure what kind of stuff you look at on the course…

Anyone help?

I am at the point of deciding what A level courses I am to take at college. I know that I am taking English but i do not know which of these two options to take. my strengths in Englishh and writing essays, descriptive or creative pieces of writing andanalyzingg pieces of work. I am also particularly good atwritingg poetry. My grammar and punctuationisn’tt perfect. which of these do yourecommendd taking and why?

As part of my A level options, I want to take A Level English Language/Literature, just wondered if anyone out there who has taken this course could give me a brief description of the course and what it entails, it should be noted I will be following the WJEC specification.

UK is my first preference, and then other colleges from all round the world.
