Mathematics at AS and A level is a course that is well worth studying in its own right. It is both challenging and interesting as it builds on the topics you have met at GCSE and develops the ideas further. It is particularly suited to people who enjoy problem solving and logical reasoning. It is a highly sought after qualification in the workplace and in Higher Education.
At AS level, Mathematics is highly useful support for Physics and other mathematics-based AS and A levels such as the Sciences, Geography, Psychology, and Sociology.
At A level, Mathematics is a much sought after qualification for entry to a wide variety of full time course in Higher Education. There are also many areas of employment that see a Mathematics A level as an important qualification, and it is often a requirement for vocational courses related to these areas.
The three modules covered are always two pure mathematics areas plus one 'applied maths'.
Assessment is by examination only.
