Does it hurt to not take physics and apply for engineering?

Not much but once you get into upper level math it can get to be physical. Like in Calc 3 it will deal with vectors and it would be easier to understand that the position vector is the integration of the velocity vector which is the integration of the acceleration vector better if you had some basic physics in you. Like the easy ones, not engineering level. Although it may help, it’s not required. Also employers might like that you have some real world applicable stuff like physics than math theory behind you.
