The last post is spam. You need maths, additional maths and physics.  Philosophy would be useful.

The best combination for A-Level's would be Math, Chemistry & Physics.

Yes diablo is right, but mechanics would also be very useful, if you wanna take a 4th subject....

Mechanics can be taken at A-Level Math.

I'm doing computer science eng. I did Maths, Physics and computing which is the best combination. Doing mechanics in maths is useless because we don't have it. You well get electronics stuffs, not mechanics in CSE. in almost all university. Doing Stats 2 would be much advantageous.
I will also add.. You must be very good at logic and problem solving if u want to succeed! Rote learning doesn't exist in CSE!
