I’m pretty sure that you don’t need the GCSE ICT to be able to take it for A-Level. Are you applying for a new sixth form/college or staying at your current school? You can ask them there and they should tell you whether GCSE ICT is required or not. I’m guessing since you are already interested in computers you would probably know the basics. Most schools/colleges say “Prior study of the subject at GCSE level may be of benefit but it is not essential” however you will need to check with your school that you will be attending because some schools have slightly different syllabus. Good luck :) I’m also choosing my A-Levels..have to decide by the end of January!
