Course summary

This course will extend your knowledge of topics covered in GCSE Mathematics, such as algebra and geometry, as well as introducing more advanced topics and techniques. Alongside Pure Mathematics, you will also study Statistics and Mechanics: Statistics will develop your knowledge of probability and your ability to analyze data, enabling you to draw and present valid conclusions from a data set using hypothesis testing and distribution models; Mechanics will apply your knowledge of vectors to understand movement (and lack thereof), collisions and the physical world using simplified models. You will develop your mathematical skills further, particularly with regards to algebra, graphs and trigonometry. You will learn advanced mathematical concepts, such as calculus and logarithms, which are applicable in a variety of contexts. You will learn how to model situations mathematically, including the use of Statistics and Mechanics, as well as developing your problem-solving and reasoning skills. Ultimately, A Level Mathematics will teach you essential skills that allow you to apply mathematics to the real world, as well as more abstract concepts that are invaluable for supporting the transition to a degree in Mathematics or related disciplines.
