Okay guys my son has kind of fcked up
he didnt quiet get the grades in gcse we were looking for 5(cs). Now he has to do applied science instead of the ones he wanted (chemistry maths and physics).
pretty sure this is gonna limit him hard.
still though just want to know what he could get as a job and also if he could ever make it in medicine/oil engineering with those grades and applied science.
from the uk btw.

just clarifying. he got 5cs.

I know you mean well for your son, but have you actually talked to him seriously what HE wants to do when he grows up?
>>
>>17538258
he wanted to do somthing in science because he enjoys it, but with those grades im not een sure anymore.
apparently applied science is worth tree a levels but not sure if he could still get a job in science with it.

How old is your son? I'm not familiar with UK's education system but I will tell you from experience something: wanting to do something and actually getting to it are completely different things.

I was a dumb kid who liked to use computers, so I thought "why not study computer science?" Yeah it just didn't happen. I hated the classes and found them extremely boring.

If your son has thought out a path fro himself then great, if he is just saying "something in science" then he better start thinking what exactly since science is quite a broad field.

he is sixteen, he often bounces from medical science to engineering.

OP is stupid. A BTEC in Applied Science will get you further than A Levels in Biology, Chemistry and Physics will. The reason being is that there are actual experiments involved with Applied Science, A Level is all based on theory work and exams. Which student will a laboratory want to employ? One who has worked in a lab setting or a student who has read about a lab setting? There are also more modules in Applied Science including Forensic Science, Criminology and Medical Science. So yeah, job prospects are actually greater with the Applied Science course.
>>
>>17538316
so should he go for lab job or medical school/uni?
are lab jobs good?
>>
>>17538215
Can't he retake the exams after a year of cramming?
>>
Re-sit GCSE year

Or continue with A levels and get really good grades at A level, then mediocre GCSEs won't matter
