When deciding on your subjects you should ask yourself...

  • What will I love studying? 
  • What do I need to have studied for my next steps post-18 (if known)?
  • Am I likely to meet the entry requirements for the individual subjects? 
  • Do I fully understand what the subject involves? 
  • Does my combination of subjects offer me breadth? 
  • Does the combination work on the timetabling blocks?

Getting to know you

At St Peter’s we value the opportunity to meet with you after applications have been submitted. We love to find out more about you, or answer those tricky questions.
