I'll need to choose my classes based on where I'll be going, after I'm done with where I am.

So I wanted to ask, and perhaps there are people here who know about the UK, about which universities you recommend? I am mostly thinking about Scotland, due to the financial support I get from my country there, over any other place in the UK.

I am quite unsure about which area of programming I'm most interested in, I know it's Game Development, but if I understand it correctly, there are sub areas of education under that. My adviser said something about physics A being required in some universities, and that's where I'm most unclear, since I am not doing so great at physics B, and I want another A grade in another class, but if I have to get physics A, I can't have it too, if that makes sense.

So what I'm asking really is, are there any great software engineering/programming universities, perhaps mostly focused on Game Development, in Scotland with paths that do not require much of physics, more specifically Physics A?

Currently I'm quite fascinated by tools for games, like modding tools, writing engines, graphics I'm getting more and more interested in.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry I don't really know what university are good but I remember when I was look (I didn't go in the end) but I was always told to contact the university's themselves (when you do get a list of some that may be good). They love enthusiastic people so if you email or phone them up and speak to the department head and just let them know exactly what your interested in it shows that your interested.

Thanks. Right now I only need to be sure that I'm taking the correct classes to get into such universities, which I think I am.
