What should i take?

[woeful marten]

I am planning to apply in CS in my uni and since im choosing my A-Levels subject what subject should I take?
Further Maths or Physics

[eager escarp]

Physics

Covers more bases than further maths

[worldly lodge]

Do both

[woeful marten]

Nah it's not for me, it's for my friend he can't do THAT much

[woeful marten]

But some unis will refuse, no? They want f maths

Overall, he will apply to every country and based on the opportunity depending

[worldly lodge]

Ohh okk

[woeful marten]

Hmm he kinda have financial issues too so bro will prolly look for scholarship

What then?

obvi the choice will get limited

[worldly lodge]

What other subjects does he have

I thought for cs it didn’t matter which subjects you take

[woeful marten]

CS, maths

[woeful marten]

Nah maths and F maths is imp

Job? It's about the uni for now right? And what places in EU?

[worldly lodge]

Oooh

[woeful marten]

He's from Pakistan

[worldly lodge]

Drop cs 😂

Ok im not being helpful imma go

[woeful marten]

That's SO LATE tho for now js think for uni

[woeful marten]

bro took law and dropped it 😭 and took CS

[worldly lodge]

Nah u gotta think of job too

[worldly lodge]

😭

[woeful marten]

Oh, but it really depends on ur skill sets, ur degree and all at that time and won't the ok so for example the UK uni's degree will work everywhere right?? Soo it doesn't really that much, no?

Idk tho tbh

Are they good for CS tho? And they don't require further maths?

True

[worldly lodge]

Just go to an education fair and ask around maybe

[woeful marten]

Alright thanks @teal perch

[sterile cloud]

Gave +1 rep to zingsuu!

[woeful marten]

Hmm good idea

I'll let him know and see if he got any more questions

has

[eager escarp]

It should be on the uni's website

Australian unis would prefer Physics

[woeful marten]

Oh damn

[woeful marten]

Alright I will ask him to do some research

[woeful marten]

Thanks, Eminem :)

[eager escarp]

Nws

[tawdry hazel]

If you're thinking about CS, further maths is the way to go

Unless you're thinking of doing a BEng of CS in a uni that requires that you have physics

At the end it all depends on your choice of unis

[woeful marten]

yeah true a lot of unis did ask for physc and not futher maths but majority of them wanted F maths

didnt know F maths was this imp 😭

[tawdry hazel]

i didn't either 😔

i started my ALs not having researched much

took 6 subjects including the 3 sciences

then realised FM is more important

[woeful marten]

LMFAO

happens

[tawdry hazel]

i'm in the same boat as you 🫂

[woeful marten]

what are you doing now

[tawdry hazel]

seven subjects

phy, chem, bio, eng, cs, math, fm

[woeful marten]

well i got people who can explain me shi

thats WILD

CRAZY

[tawdry hazel]

not sure what to drop 😭

[woeful marten]

you wanna do bio tech or sm

[tawdry hazel]

well biotech is my alt path

[woeful marten]

man why english 😭

[tawdry hazel]

my main path is CS

i'm in india bro

[woeful marten]

its useless imo if youre doing CS

[tawdry hazel]

it's compulsory

[woeful marten]

so

oh

💀 really

[tawdry hazel]

yeah really

[woeful marten]

but not if youre applying in foreign unis

[tawdry hazel]

yes it still is

[woeful marten]

thats wildddd

[tawdry hazel]

to be considered a "12th pass" child by the gov

[woeful marten]

nah not english, ielts works too

and ielts is easy asf if you compare it with aleveks

english

[tawdry hazel]

yea ielts is pretty easy

i'm taking general eng btw

[woeful marten]

oh

idk then tbh

[woeful marten]

its basically IG english 😭

[tawdry hazel]

yeahh

anyways

@woeful marten what're your current subjects?

including phy/fm

[woeful marten]

nah nah this thread wasnt for me my friend asked me for advice and i asked here 😭

[tawdry hazel]

ohhhhh ic

what're their subs?

[woeful marten]

they took Law, maths and CS and was confused about Physc and F maths, a final descion is that they dropped Law and took Maths, CS and FM

[tawdry hazel]

I see

If they can take up another subject, choose physics

If not, this is the best combo

[woeful marten]

okay thanks vansh

[sterile cloud]

Gave +1 rep to mr.code5197!

[muted sonnet]

i am a physics student and trust me for the first and second semester CS students were taking our most of our classes 🤣

[woeful marten]

so should i take phys or f maths 😭

[muted sonnet]

Any of them would be good for you is what am trying to say 🙂

But looks at the further maths syllabus

Cause if it has more linear algebra and discrete maths

Then take it

[woeful marten]

I seeee alr sure bud thanks
