Core Maths is an exciting course that complements and supports your subject choices as well providing increased employability skills. It allows you to continue to study some aspects of Mathematics at Level 3 without having to commit completely to an entire A Level. It counts as the same number of UCAS points as an AS Level and is widely accepted by universities and future employers. The focus is on applied mathematics and topics include: - Financial Mathematics - Modelling - Probabilities - Collecting and Analysing Data - Finding Patterns in Data An example question might be 'Work out the income tax, national insurance, and student loan repayments for someone earning £52,000'. You will have three Core Maths lessons per week during your first year of College. There are two external examinations in the summer, both 90 minutes long. Preliminary material will be released in March where real-life examples of data and information will be given to you and these are then used as the basis of questions in the examination.
