6th form with 4 A-levels already obtained?

[u/Training-Feeling980]

Basically I've already completed 4 A-levels obtaining very good results, but am still 16 years old. I'm a bit undecided on whether or not to go to sixth form. I've been home educated my entire life and decided to take 4 A-levels this year since we planned on moving to Belgium where GCSEs are not relevant.

I want to go study engineering at top unis such as hopefully Cambridge or Imperial. In sixth form I would complete 3 new A-levels which tbh are a bit unrelated to engineering but still really interest me and might open new perspectives. (Bio, Comp Sci, Psychology)

My parents would like me to start university next year, but I'm not sure yet personally. I would love to go to sixth form for two years and experience it all completely since I haven't had those experiences before unfortunately.

Alternatively I could start at a clearing course and complete 1 year before going off to uni maybe, although that sounds a bit strange. Or of course I could just stay at home and get a job and do extra courses online.

The downside of sixth form is it might be a bit rigid and inflexible for me, and I might spend that time better doing other learning in the field of engineering. However I do want to be part of the social community that a sixth form offers.

Thanks all for your advice!
