Hey! Physics they will reteach, but they will assume you know the 2U course (specifically, Calculus) so I'd recommend doing a bridging course of some description! You could do one of the official ones, do some work with a tutor, or even teach yourself with the heap of material online. Depends how confident you feel I guess :)

Most Civil Engineering courses require you to get a study score of 25 in either Methods or Specialist. They also require you do get 25 study score in Chemistry. Even if you don’t choose Specialist, you’ll do it in Uni anyway. Physics they teach from scratch.

We don't have those sorts of prerequisites at NSW universities (which is pretty surprising, really!) ;D
