What is Chem required for?

Hey Guys, i am seriously considering dropping chem next year to take on MUEP maths (will also be doing spesh, methods, physics and english, and already done a 3/4))

I just wanted to know which courses chem are a prerequisite for, and which ones are good to have a chem background in. I am interested in studying engineering in the future

thanks.
Class of 2014.

Specialist Maths [53.06] Maths Methods [48.83] Physics [48.22]

Donuts. Is there anything they can't do?

Well there is not much cross over with chem and eng unless you're considering chemical engineering...nevertheless you might be doing foundation chem in uni, which is equivalent to y12 chem
2012 ATAR:88.90

2013-2015 Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering and Science (dropped in 2015)
2015-2017 Bachelor of Engineering (Mechanical)

Chemistry is generally required in science-related degrees (although usually, it's just one of the three sciences: Biology/Chemistry/Physics). I'd say that Chemistry keeps more options open, but if you aren't going to pursue a career in science/medicine/etc., then you could drop it.
