Our must-read guide to starting uni part 1


Sick of those lame and lifeless guides to getting started at uni? Well, so are we… so we wrote our own!

How to: pick your year 9 GCSE options

Not sure what option to take?

You’ve probably only just adjusted to life at your secondary school when you’re asked to make major decisions about what you’re going to continue to study - the Year 9 options. But don’t panic because we’ve created this teentoday.co.uk guide to help you through the process.

The decisions you will have to make
The decisions you make in Year 9 are important because they control the next 2 years of your school life and can have consequences for what you go on to do after your GCSEs. In Year 9 you will have to decide which subjects you want to focus on in the next 2 years (Years 10 and 11). Some subjects are compulsory but others are for you to decide - your options.
