You can drop Physics if you so wish. Tell your teachers you arent doing it and get your universities agreement as you cannot drop a subject once it is on your application as you are changing the contract. Stop being a coward. Stand up to your teachers and parents. It is your life being ruined.

It isnt unusual for grammar or private schools to try this on as they have more interests in themselves than their pupils. The higher the points you get the better it reflects on them

But I did not apply to any uni yet.

If you want something to write in your personal statement, doesn't have to be EPQ. Could do some free online courses or work exp. if you want something extra. By the sounds of it, your grades will take u anywhere regardless.

Yeah I guess super curriculars will do!

If you havent applied to any uni yet you will be too late for Oxbridge.
