Engineering without further maths????

I am doing A levels in maths, chemistry, biology and physics , but i want to study aeronautical or mechanical engineering at uni. How good a chance do i have of getting into e.g. imperial, without further maths.

I have seen other threads like this one, and aside from picking up further maths AS, is there anything else i could do to improve my application?

I would not advice you to try without full FM

So would taking the AS with mostly mechanics modules help much?
Thanks

Better than nothing but FP2 plus FP3 will be far superior

So doing just the AS, which modules are most suitable?

FP1 (compulsory)
FP2
FP3

Plus M1 M2 with straight Maths

Imperial does say that they recommend you doing further maths. For some subjects it is required. Most universities will not require it though, including some very good ones like Southampton.
