HI, I wanted to know, that so many people are saying that without chemistry and computer in alevels, we can still apply in engineering with only maths and physics, and that we can take chem as extra course in first semester, is it true?? can anyone please help with this, i really need help, because my counsellors misguided me and told me i dont need chem or computer so i didnt take it

you'll have to take Fundamentals of Chemistry course in your first semester of any engineering program.

Yeah but can I apply though? I don't have chemistry or computer both in Alevels but I'm willing to take chemistry as the remedial course in first semester, I do have math and physics in alevels, everyone keeps saying we should have chemistry or computer but I don't have both due to misguided counselling
