    If I may respond on his behalf:

    You haven't chosen exactly the same subjects as me therefore I'm going to demonstrate my supreme naivity by:

    * Saying you're stupid
    * Claiming that I am academically superior to you even though I have in no way achieved anything that might support such a statement
    * Informing you that you have no future because you have no prospects in your career choice
    * Calling you a loser
    * Suggesting that I will be infinitely more successful than you, despite not having actually been accepted into University myself yet
    I've run out of rep...:unsure:

    Yes, there are loads of good unis (Uni of Sheffield is one example) that do not require maths. They provide classes for maths as do many other unis.
