I've started an Access to HE course in Computing, with my goal being to go to a good university next year to study Computer Science!
I've spoken to the university and they do accept Access courses to CS on a case-by-case basis, but have also said they would strongly prefer I also had A Level Maths for CS. (So to reiterate it's not absolutely required per-say, but they would like to see it as a form of maths qualification)
My Access course does cover a graded module on Advanced Mathematics, and a graded module on Mathematics for IT. Do you think this would be enough to prove math ability for CS?
I also have the option to self study A level math's and sit the exam next year, but that will be extremely hard alongside an access course I think.
I could also maybe take AS Level maths, that would give me some extra UCAS points alongside my Access course but would it be enough to be considered do you think?
I want to choose a path to go down because it'll be too late soon, I don't want to apply and get turned down because of not enough math qualifications, and I don't want to try study an A/AS Level alongside my course for no reason at the risk of dropping my quality of work on my access course?
