To anyone who has looked into or is doing chemical engineering at university, how relevant is physics for the course? I know that things such as thermodynamics and laws dictating how fluids flow etc, and even some quantom mechanics I hear, play a part in the course which are all physics related but to what extent do they come into it?
Getting a higher in physics shouldn't be a problem, I've never found it hard but it would mean I have to take an extra year at school or at college to get said higher. I just don't really want to spend that time doing physics only to get into chemical engineering and find that I didn't need it. I know it would probably benefit me having it but I'm really asking if it is mandatory.
