Physics- Please help!

Hello guys! I have an unconditional offer for Bsc Physics and I've seen that for the first 2 years Im having 3 subjects two of which are Physics and Mathematics(compulsory). What my 3rd subject can be ? Does anyone know the list of subjects I can choose from ? and if for example I want to take biology for my 3rd subject, do I need to have certain qualifications for that ? i.e Biology A-level ?

Thanks in advance :smile:
I got a list of requirements for subject electives in the email I received about getting an unconditional. Computing Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Astronomy, Statistics, Chemistry, and Physics. Those were the choices I was shown, don't know if there are any more that can be done or if all of them can be done but hopefully it helps a little.

Uh sorry no I don't, I'm just getting info from the email I received. Are you sure you don't have it in yours? It's in a table like thing fairly close to the bottom. Under the header Entrance Requirements for Specific Subject Electives. If not then I can just copy paste the information here?
