Media is the easiest subject ever, you even get to take the answers into one of the exam!

A-levels; Law, Sociology, Business + Spanish. = bad times. They're so hard.

I can't talk about A levels but the Vocational courses of Media can be quite challenging. No tests involved but a lot of coursework and practical stuff.

Film is very easy and can be very enjoyable if you love film
Some of my friends take media and photograpghy, they say those subjects are also easy and enjoyable as long as you put the effort in

I liked Psychology, thought it was interesting. Suppose it depends which board you do and whether your teacher is fit or not

My school is so boring! They offer the most basic subjects with little on the way of variety. Looks luke I'm stuck with media studies, English and 2 other boring subjects that I don't wanna do.
