Hi maz-w. While many GCSE subjects remain compulsory, the optional courses, the numbers of optional courses to choose (and which combinations of optional courses you are allowed) vary between schools. For instance, I had to choose between Geography and History, and if I did German, I couldn't do music (!)
So if you could give us the ones you need to choose between, that would be great.
In your case, obviously you need to do as much Drama as possible!
speaking as an actor (actress if you like)... no gcse's are going to get you a full time job in acting - good or otherwise.
taking a gcse in drama (if you can) would certainly help - beyond that there are many, many options.
there's theatre school, drama school (or a drama course at college) - they will help you too but at the end of the day you will only get out of it what you put in. to be successful in the industry (and let's face it 95% of actors are out of work at any given time), you have to be extremely ambitious, hard-working, and most of all lucky.
If you are related to someone like vanessa flipping redgrave it helps too....
