A Level Physics without Further Maths.

My A level Choices for year 12 is Maths, Economics, Computer Science and Physics. In your guys opinions in Physics doable at A level without Further Maths.

I’m predicted an 8 In Maths and a 9 In Physics at the moment, any advice would help!

Yes, it is doable. Topics covered in further maths are not at all needed for physics A level, or even Olympiads. What will be important is fluency, so you may need a little more practice. (N.B. some people do physics without A-level maths, let alone further maths.) Good luck in your GCSEs.

I do both of those subjects and I can officially say further really doesn't help with physics like there's barely any overlap - you'll be absolutely fine especially with those grades <3
