Mathematics A Level is a demanding but rewarding course that is an ideal preparation for university study in a range of subjects including Medicine, Science, Engineering, and of course, Mathematics itself. Studying Mathematics also complements other-level courses such as Physics, Economics, Computer Science, Chemistry, Geography and Biology. Students who are good at Mathematics and enjoy the subject, consistently achieve very good grades at A Level Mathematics. Even if your chosen course does not require Mathematics it is a very well respected A Level, demonstrating strong academic rigor, problem-solving, logical thinking, and statistical analysis; all qualities highly valued by universities and employers for any career choice. Students will follow the Edexcel Mathematics specification. Across the two years, they will study three mathematical areas of Pure Mathematics (including functions, graphs, equations, exponentials, logarithms, geometry, vectors, trigonometry, differential equations, and calculus), Statistics (including statistical sampling, measures of average and spread, the Binomial distribution, Normal distribution, hypothesis testing, and probability) and Mechanics (including kinematics, Newton’s Laws, vectors, and forces).
Mathematics A Level – Examined at the end of Upper Sixth Paper 1: Pure Mathematics 1. 33.3 % of the A Level. 2-hour written paper Paper 2: Pure Mathematics 2. 33.3% of the A Level. 2-hour written paper Topics examined in Papers 1 and 2: • Topic 1 – Proof • Topic 2 – Algebra and functions • Topic 3 – Coordinate geometry in the (x, y) plane • Topic 4 – Sequences and series • Topic 5 – Trigonometry • Topic 6 – Exponentials and logarithms • Topic 7 – Differentiation • Topic 8 – Integration • Topic 9 – Numerical methods • Topic 10 – Vectors Paper 3: Statistics and Mechanics.33.3% of the A Level. 2-hour written paper Section A: Statistics • Topic 1 – Statistical sampling • Topic 2 – Data presentation and interpretation • Topic 3 – Probability • Topic 4 – Statistical distributions • Topic 5 – Statistical hypothesis testing Section B: Mechanics • Topic 6 – Quantities and units in mechanics • Topic 7 – Kinematics • Topic 8 – Forces and Newton’s laws • Topic 9 – Moments
