A Levels, the first hurdle
 
I am currently study Chemistry, Geography and History at A Level, along with a Business studies AS.

Do these subjects look favourable to airlines for pilot sponsorship or would I be declined, as I have no Maths or Physics. Would a Degree for example in Geography waiver the A level requirements?

Many thanks

I would take the classes you can get the best marks in! Couple reasons, good marks are just mroe impressive, but more importantly the competition is tough for sponsorship so if you are unable to get it this time, you will have your best marks to get into a good uni with.

Does not matter: just do weel in them and make sure you have 'life experience'. Nothing is 'preferencial' as such.

Physics and maths will come in useful; a knowledge of physics is a very nice thing to have during groudschools, and if you're going to learn basic electronics or aerodynamics it's nice to..err.. know them already!

However, I imagine you'll still get in with anything, you'd just be starting without a little bit of acquired knowledge some others might have.
