    If I were you, I'd just do HL LC Maths.

    That'll be the biggest indicator as to whether or not you'll be able for the course.

    hmmm?!.....maybe? but the LC HL maths is a totally different course.....throwing myself into it now would be totally useless!! What sort of topics are covered in the Civil course?

    Mainly linear algebra and calculus. Look up past exam papers on the library website. It might look really hard but if you show up to lectures and tutorials it's not so bad.
