If the OP is not applying to Engineering or Computer Science programs, it is unlikely that he or she will need Physics. My son got into ten out of fifteen colleges he applied to, and was waitlisted at two others. I doubt that the lack of Physics on his transcript was a determining factor in his rejections from UC Berkeley, UNC-Chapel Hill, and Claremont-McKenna. They are three highly-selective colleges, and were always reaches for him. Tulane and UCSD, along with other prestigious colleges, accepted him without Physics.
