Not like the car chasers or the people making innocent people out to be horrible citizens etc. I mean like a writer in a magazine or a sports writer okay?

Preferable choices at As level?

I'm not from UK, but I'd say it'd definitely be a great subject to take. Employees are going to hire people who are excellent and clear communicators, skills you obtain from journalism.

I'm going to do it at college (first chance it'll be offered for me), and I can't wait!

I never took at AS (I'm in my second year of Sixth Form now), but it does seem like quite an interesting course, It ties quite well with media :P

I aspire to be a music journalist and got no advice from anyone on what subjects to took for that direction. However, I took Media Studies, English Language, ICT and Psychology for AS level. Alll seem to be related in some way to journalism, hope that helps in some way..

English mainly.
However linked to it I suppose there is Media & ICT.

I was at one point thinking of doing journalism but I chose not to.

Same grays.
IMO it's not greatly paid unless your up there at the complete top. Also it's a hard lifestyle, everythings so quick etc.
