The Programme Content
AS Further Mathematics enables students to obtain a deeper understanding of the subject by studying the compulsory module Further Pure Mathematics 1. This module covers topics such as series, complex numbers and matrix algebra. You will gain a broader understanding of the range of mathematical subjects as the two extra applied units, Decision Mathematics and Statistics Module 2 are studied. Decision Mathematics covers topics such as algorithms, critical path analysis and linear programming. Statistics 2 builds upon the techniques studied in Statistics Module 1 in the AS level course and includes topics such as hypothesis testing and the study of further statistical distributions.
In the second year Further Pure Mathematics Modules 2 and 3 are studied together with Mechanics Module 2
