AS Levels subjects

hey, im a private candidate, and studying computer science, recently started my edexcel AS Levels. the problem is, i chose 3 subjects, Computer science, Mathematics and physics. i don’t understand physics at all, so are there any other subjects i can take rather than physics, which will not be any troublesome for my Uni admissions?

Assuming you're thinking computer science at uni, I would think maths and computer science would be good enough almost anywhere provided you get the grades asked for. For a third one chemistry and biology are other good STEM ones, as is further maths if you love maths and are good at it, or you could do something like economics or an essay subject just to broaden your subject range.

Further math is a good option if you’re enjoying math! Otherwise chem is also a good choice.
