Are Maths and Geography being viewed as two Alevel science subjects?

Hi everyone, I am applying to study Environmental Science in University of Manchester in 2015. They require me to study at least one Science Subject in Alevel but I only have Geography, Maths and English Literature. Here I would like to know if they count Geography and Maths as science subjects like some other unis do? Thanks! :smile:
Maths is seen as the fourth science subject but I'm not sure about Geography

Maths is sometimes considered, if that uni states that it counts. If they don't specify on their website you need to give them a call and ask.
Geography is not usually considered a science.
Maths would almost certainly be considered as a science subject (but definitely call and check). Geography isn't until you get to uni, and only then if you decide to specialise in physical geography and gain a BSc rather than a BA.

Thanks everyone, I get annoyed when the unis don't specify on their websites. Duh, don't they get annoyed with getting so many phone calls from people asking the same question?
