Computer Science

Anyone have finished a degree in Computer Science lmk and which universities don’t require maths a level and has no maths in the degree as love cs but absolute hate maths which is making me consider whether to this as a degree lmk???

Hi there!
I personally don't study computer science but my partner is currently studying in the computer science department in Edge Hill University. He didn't do a maths A-Level and it is not required in computer science courses! There are elements of using maths in the degree, it is not an overwhelmingly large part of his course. Although it is worth checking the specific course content to make sure it is something you would be happy with.
I hope this helped, good luck!!

Plain comp sci BSC is always going to contain some maths. What aspect of computer science do you enjoy? Maybe a more specialised degree in cybersecurity of soft engineering ect..

Wdym soft engineering and cyber security does have math

Hey OP, take a look at this thread. You will be hard pressed to find a course with no maths at all, unfortunately it is the backbone to many aspects of CS.
I'm not great at maths either yet I'm still going into CS, Cyber Security if it matters (it doesn't). I take it you're not going to focus too much on AI aside from the mandatory modules, you barely need calculus anymore then so don't worry.
Part of the point of the A-level maths to teach you problem solving skills, which is integral to CS. Unis tend towards Maths and FM because it demonstrates ability, not because there is absolute knowledge that you will only understand once you have conquered volumes of revolution.
Hope this helps, don't let missing A-level maths dishearten or dissuade you 😊.

Hello! Which unis have you applied to and what subjects did you do?

Ye but don’t want maths in the course to so might not do cs
