I'm currently doing my AS levels, (Geography, English Literature, Business and Sociology), although I aim to become a pilot.
In GCSE's, I did struggle with Maths and Physics quite a bit... I got a C in Maths, and I think a C in Physics, although one unit was a D.
I've now been looking at University courses, and i've found many different ones, including Loughborough and Coventry (Aviation Management) and also Hertfordshire (Aviation Technology with pilot studies) and New Bucks (Air Transport and pilot studies). Although i feel like these may be good options, and they do not require maths and physics, which is ideal for me, I partially think it would be best if i done a foundation degree perhaps, to get onto a engineering course.
I emailed Liverpool uni about an aerospace engineering degree, which requires maths and physics, and they said there is a foundation degree possible, where I learn Maths and Physics. I feel like this may be a good idea, as this course would be based on engineering and also pilot studies, and I would be able to work around the maths and physics problem, but will this course really be suitable for me. Would i even be able to do the foundation degree with a maths and physics GCSE of C? And if i could, would i really struggle with this degree, especially the foundation one where i learn maths and physics.
I'm not sure what path would be the best.. Is it better sticking with the degrees I've mentioned above, or is it worth maybe trying an engineering degree including a foundation year? Thank you!
