      I think Physics and Maths would be the most useful in terms of understanding the mechanics and engineering. Chemistry might be useful as well to understand about different materials you might use in building robots.

      I would suggest that if you want to go into robotics you might what to study engineering at university. A number of universities offer courses in robotics that combine mechanical engineering, electronic engineering and computer science. A school you should be studying at least physics and maths. Chemistry would as Neil said help a little if you want to understand the stuff the robots are built from.

      Hmm you need a bit of everything I suspect, especially chemistry, physics, maths, computing and engineering…
