Answer 1

Your list looks fine to me.

Answer 2

i would definatly recomend media studies. i never took it at GCSE but just found out i got a B in my As today in it. english can help they all seem helpful.

a connections worker recomended to me that i talk to people in the industry and i have met some really influencial people. as my media teacher has alot of connections and also look at which course at uni you would think of studying and make sure you take the A levels in the criteria. i would'nt worry too much though they sound like good choices and will help you. media is a really flexiable subject and you can draw lots of things into it.
