I want to study Computer Science but my school doesn't offer A-Level Computer Science instead they offer ICT. What would you advice I do? Should I take up or drop ICT . I do chemistry, physics and math as well.

Well it depends on your interests. AICT is not an easy subject especially the practical exams involving MS Office. If you already have the pre-engineering courses, I don't think there's a need to take CS/AICT because both of them do not help you in your university education. I took AICT myself and so far I haven't been able to use it except for earning MS Office Certifications.
But if you want the fourth subject then AICT is a good choice as long as your teacher is good. Even if not, I can link you to theory notes and practical videos solution pack.
Also one more thing, AICT won't be counted in your equivalence; if you're planning to study in Pakistan.
