A level subjects combination to study engineering in germany

I'm currently studying Cambridge A-levels with a subject combination of Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Economics. I plan to study engineering in Germany. I know that you'll have to get a language qualification in order to study in Germany, so I'll be taking German Language A-levels outside as my college doesn't provide this. And I'm deciding if I should take Further Maths or Economics. I have a few questions here:1) Will taking Further Maths be an advantage to getting into German Uni? If you do not take it, will it be at a less advantage compared to those who did? for example do they prefer the ones who take fm than the ones who dont?2) Is A-level Maths and Further Maths counted as one subject or two subjects in Germany?3) Do German Uni assess your extra-curricular activities or do they just look at your grades?Thank you. And if you have any informations regarding to studying in Germany too, please comment below.
