Prerequisites required for a commercial pilots licence

[Peter D]

Hello all,

Just a general inquiry as to the prerequisites required for becoming a commercial pilot at either a flying school, ADFA or through a cadetship?

Last time I checked all that was required for the defence force was 2U maths, English and another board approved subject. However, as of late, I read that the required subjects are chem, physics and 2U maths.

I'm particularly concerned as to whether I need Physics to become a pilot?

Please note that I am asking for the prerequisites required to become a pilot, not to be an aeronautical engineer. They are different right?

Thanks in advance
