Geography is the worst GCSE apart from German I think, oh so boring.

I didn't take Geog. personally but some of my friends did cos they brought consent forms back late:P

Business is good if you have good knowledge and can learn well, I got an A*

Media is good but not all it's 'cracked up' to be!

Media Studies is crap too.

[Bear-Max]

Media is also one of those subjects that will add pretty much nothing to your CV. It's considered an "easy subject" and isn't looked highly upon when applying for a job.

Geography wasn't the most entertaining subject, but I chose it. It was hard work but worth it in the end.

[Eamonn]

Didn't get to choose media ;p my best option is probs Sociology its good :p

[JonJonStress]

Apparently Geograpghy and History are good academic subjects, and a language GCSE opens up more jobs, so that's what I took. Didn't need both History and Gegoraphy though....

[Crouch]

k well we call it standard grades here and theres different subjects. I take:
English
Maths
History
French
Physics
Hospitality
Chemistry
Business Administration
Physical Education
Lifeskills
Religious Education

The stuff in italics is the stuff I HAD to take ;P

Yeah, history and geography show you can dissect sources of information and look at things logically, and a language shows you're abole to take in something completely new. Like a few other said, I took all three of those at GCSE level, though of those I only progressed onto A-Level with History.

A lot of the time the qualifications you earn aren't showing employers what you learnt in your subjects, but the skills you aquired through them.
