Hi Imran - there's no need to study law at A levels, most firms don't have this as an expectation but it could be helpful for the Degree side of the apprenticeship to make you familiar with using case law and certain legal concepts. I, myself, did: Biology, History and Philosophy and this was more than suitable to secure an apprenticeship - the most important thing is doing subjects that you score well at (as failing to meet a firm's minimum A-Level requirements will result in a rescinded offer)!
