Further maths for electrical engineering?

I'm currently doing 4 A levels: Maths, Physics, Computer Science and Systems and Control (in Y12).

I am wanting to go on to study Electrical/Computer engineering at university.
Thing is I hear a lot about how further maths can benefit when applying to good universities as well as how it gives you an advantage in not having to learn more maths. I didn't choose further maths because while I love physics and electronics, (got A*s in both at GCSE) I struggle with maths ( or at least I don't like it, I got a low A in GCSE in it). Doing further maths would kill me, especially since I enjoy my current A levels.

Should I drop one of my subjects to do further maths? Will not doing further maths effect me as much as if I was doing structural engineering ( as I know that involves a lot more maths). What can I do to make up for not doing further maths?

Also another side question:

Southampton university will let you do a Beng with grades AAA and Meng with grades A*AA for electrical engineering.
Loughborough university will let you do a Beng with grades AAB and Meng with grades AAA for electrical engineering.
Lets say I get AAA at A-level, would it be better to do the Beng and southhampton or the Meng at Loughborough? (southhampton is in the top 3 or 4 for electrical engineering in the UK).


Thanks in advance for any help.

No you'll be fine with just standard maths. However, if you dislike maths I would advise you not to pursue electronic engineering as it has tonnes of maths involved.

Apply for BEng at all your unis as it has lower requirements. You can change your course to MEng after your first or second year if you achieve 60% (usually around this percentage, depends on your uni).

I didnt do further maths & got on fine

What sort of maths is involved? It would depend on the type of maths as some of it I don't mind.
What else could I do to supplement the maths in the course without taking further maths as an entire A-level?

Look at the modules at different universities, it'll give you the best insight into the type of maths involved. There's a fair bit of core maths from what I know; laplace transforms, differential equations, complex numbers etc as well as decision maths.

You're missing the point I'm making. You will not be left behind in your course if you haven't studied FM, the course will be taught with an assumed knowledge of standard maths only. You stated you struggled with maths so I was saying that EEE might not be for you when you'll be expected to study rather complex mathematics for 3-4 years.

Further maths with emphasis on mechanics and fp modules would be the best idea. If you really don't like maths then why would you choose to study engineering?
