cs at oxbridge/imperial/ucl

I’m currently a student going into yr12 to study; maths, physics and cs + epq (cs based). I want to pursue compsci in oxbridge or imperial however i’ve seen that further maths is almost essential- though my six form doesn’t offer it. am I disadvantaged in my application? How much does taking physics help?
