Petroleum Engineering
Hello, I'm currently in year 13 studying Maths, Chemistry and English lit for my a-levels. I hope to study a petroleum engineering degree at university and most unis require maths and chemistry but i was wondering if i stood a chance without a physics a-level. thanks x

Maybe. As always, check the requirements.
But I have to say, doing an Engineering degree without doing Physics sounds a little strange to me.
Is there any specific reason you are not doing Physics? A lot of universities will offer a foundation year to catch up on the material, so you do still have options

Yes, as I wasn't planning on doing an engineering course when choosing my as levels, but recently changed my mind. Yeah I was thinking of doing a foundation course, I guess I'll explore other options

Lots of universities don't require physics for engineering courses. Only maths

I don't think you'd need to do a foundation year. In first year there are 1 or 2 optional modules, 1 if them is engineering physics, do that and it'll get you upto scratch
