Answer 1

If I had to make the choice I would personally go for art as it is more fun, though you would probably make more from a graphics job in the future.

They are both fun though and you should have no trouble getting onto a graphics course or an art course in the future even without art or graphics GCSE's.

Some college/further education courses will accept you as long as you have 5 GCSE's A-C (no matter what they are) and as long as you talk to the person running the course if there is a art/graphics GCSE requirement and show them some of your work and convince them your into it then they should allow you onto the course.

Its the same with jobs, talk to the people in charge, show them your work, convince them you're good and they will make eceptions.

Answer 2

Aren't there any Applied Art and Design A-Levels which combine both together?

Answer 3

do an art and design course thats what i did then you get to bring your own sort of style into anywork you do, i did art design a2 lvl, now at college doing art and design foundation, then uni soon, oh and their isnt just graphics to do at uni it gets broken down like architecture, spatial design which i hope 2 do, advertising, package design, furniture theirs loads!
