STEP / MAT Exam
I want to study Computer Science at uni (hopefully Oxford or Imperial) but I don't take AS/A-Level Further Maths so I am taking both the STEP and MAT exams instead (also considering AS FM in Year 13). However, I'm a little confused as to how tell this to the university e.g. do I mention in my personal statement that I'm taking them? or is there a different way?I'm worried that if I don't mention it somewhere in my application that I won't get an offer.

It'll be in the qualifications section. Please don't waste space in your PS.
