You would need Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics for Computer Science. ( It's essential)
For your O Levels consider the following subjects:

- Physics (5054)
- Chemistry (5070)
- Mathematics Additional (4037)
- Computer Science (2210)
- English
- And a language, preferably

You can take extra subjects like Biology and Environmental Management, if you can handle these subjects
The choice is entirely your's, I am no one to tell you. I just suggested you a few things.

I am sorry for the previous comment, chemistry won't be essential, however, there are branches of computer science which require chemistry, such as computational chemistry. (again, you have to be interested in that)

You can take it as a subject for your O - Levels, then maybe drop it in AS Levels, if you strongly feel that you are not confident with it.

I would suggest give it a try in O - Levels. (personally, i find it quite scoring, just pay a little more attention to the concepts and get them right)

Hi,

check out:

www.alevel.co.uk

Although the site is about Alevels, it still giives a breakdown for each subject and what career progression options there are, it will assist you in ascertaining which subjects to take for sure.

Good Luck!!

Its just a myth. Nothing actually happens. She can drop it only if she does not intend to do Biomedical Engineering.
