What the college says

You would be well suited to studying French at A level if you: — enjoy languages and want to develop your skills in a range of contexts — are interested in French and French-speaking cultures and societies — are willing to develop your opinions on personal, national and international issues — are willing to work hard to learn grammatical structures and new vocabulary — are aiming for an international career — would like to develop your knowledge of foreign literature and film. French links well with almost any subject as you will study a wide range of life experiences from a French point of view. Other languages will also complement the study of French, as linguistic skills are highly transferable. A language can also be incredibly useful if applying for any other university or professional field where verbal and written skills are paramount, e.g. Law, Politics, History, English, Philosophy, Psychology, Sociology.
