civil engineering without A level Physics?
Do you think it possible to do Civil engineering Course in Liverpool without A level Physics?
At the moment I am doing A level Maths ( C1 , C2 and D1) , Art and design and BTEC NATIONAL AWARD (Medical Science) .
Or Do you think i should drop D1 and pick M1 for As and M2 for A2
Any one have any Idea?

Why don't you call them and ask? They'll give you a straight answer.
And yes, I think you should drop D1 and do M1 instead, it'll give you a head start when you're at Uni.

I agree , don't waste your time with decision maths at all and do straight mechanics especially as you're not doing any Physics it wouldn't be a good idea to go to uni not having met anything in at least M2 doing something like engineering.It might be that they might be able to take you on the course with M1 and M2 in lieu of A2 Physics.(You meet concepts even up to M3 in A2 Physics such as circular motion but it all has to be watered down for those who don't do Maths but do Physics 
)
EDIT - apparantly their course seems to have no requirement for A2 Physics.I still think it's a good idea though doing straight mechanics.

is Mechanis same as Alevel Physics?
should i pick further maths ? would that help for civil engineering?
Newcastle Uni offers Civil engineering with foundation year. There is a test at the start of the year, if you perform well they consider you to enter Stage 1 without the foundation year.
If I was you I would definately do the mechanics modules.

they wont let you in for any engineering course without Physics.

M1 would be preferable, M2 would also be nice but S1 is a good scorer and you will need it anyway as we (at Newcastle) do Statistics in Stage 2.

Weird.
Seems that you can do Civil Eng without Physics at Liverpool
You weren't able to last year, as far as I'm aware.

is Mechanis same as Alevel Physics?
No! Although I found M1 harder than Unit 1 physics (which was mainly mechanics) there are bits of mechanics in the other units which are useful as well. And if you think about it, it wouldn't make sense that one or two units of mechanics could be the equivalent to a whole a level in physics.
Why is it not possible for you to do A Level Physics?
I self taught AS maths because it didn't fit in my timetable, maybe you could think about doing the same for AS physics? (but be warned: its hard work!)
Even if you manage to find one uni that will consider you without physics, you're going to need to apply to more than one!
Do further maths and pick up mechanics modules. But be warned, it will be a bit hard to understand the concept without doing physics. Its because I did the same thing as well. Good luck=]
what did you get for your maths?
what qulification for M1 you have ? OCR , AQA, EXCEl .......

I got A in maths with WJEC. I got 100% but thats not as impressive as it sounds as its ridiculously easy once u get the hang of it. If you're worried then just do a bit of maths over the summer to catch up.
if you have the choice then do M1 and M2, as theyre definitely more relevant for your course.
