Hi, I have just registered with ACCA to start with my first exam – F1 and so on. I am 22 and have only recently decided the career I wanted to pursue. I have no previous qualifications, so I just done a IGCSE in in English language in June. I’m not sure however if I should do a GCSE in Maths. I know it’s not required however i’m not sure how employers would view me not having a GCSE in Maths?
Hello,
Firstly I would recommend for you to have a look at what type of jobs/companies would be suitable for you and then see what their requirements are.
I also recommend contacting some recruitment agency’s and explain your situation as they would have experience in placing people in jobs according to their qualifications/experience so that might help answer your query quicker.
I personally work for a big 4 accountancy firm and a Maths GCSE was a requirement, but in addition to that, they had more academic requirements.
So it really does depend on what type of jobs/companies will offer you a career without a Maths GCSE, because if you do not need one then it would save you time.
I hope this helps and if you have any further questions, please let me know.
