for pretty much every uni unless stated you only need biology + chemistry some unis like Edinburgh and Oxford require maths but it will be stated on their entry requirements page
Each Uni will have different requirements - both subjects and grades - so check carefully on each Uni website.
If they only specify two subjects and dont 'prefer' anything for the third subject, then it can literally be anything - they are only interested in the grade. Also check any GCSE requirements - if they dont want A level Maths there may still be a GCSE Maths requirement.
The usual advice for your 5 choices is :
This means you are likely to get at least 2 or 3 offers and you will have offers with a range of grade requirements - important when you come to choose your Firm and Insurance choices later.

The usual advice for your 5 choices is :
•
1 or 2 just above your predicted grades
•
2 or 3 at your predicted grades
•
Always 1 choice below your predicted grades.
