My A level's?

Hey I chose these A levels:

Maths, Further Maths, Computing and Economics.

Im aiming to do a computing science degree, would these fit into the right criterion?

If not, could you give me some good reccomendations please?

Thanks!

they're good but don't take further maths and maths to A2- some uni's don't like that

No that's not true for a computer science course, you need as much maths as you can get. This rule only applies to a medical application.

Just a warning to you that some universities only except maths and further maths as one subject

That is only true for a medical application, not a maths intensive course such as computer science.

You should be fine, most unis don't ignore further mathematics

um Further and Maths are some of the most repected you can get?

God knows what people are thinking. Perhaps for medicine. But Maths a level matters more than computing. In fact I would drop computing because it is considered a waste of time by most unis. Including me and I did it.

I was thinking of changing economics to physics because it seemed more relevant to my subject studies. Do you think I should leave it as it is, change it to physics or pick another course?

All comments are appreciated.

Thank you.

As it will be the fourth subject it probably won't matter which you take but, having taken physics, I think you need to be really interested in it in order to take it for A level. Out of economics and physics just take which ever one you want to do more. It's best if you enjoy your subjects as you'll find it easier to work harder and do better. Hope that helps.
