This is a challenging and popular course. It covers two main elements: Pure Mathematics and Applications. Pure elements: These elements provide students with the tools and techniques required to solve problems in other areas of mathematics, for example Science and Engineering. The course starts by developing algebra skills before moving into: - Proof; - Algebra and functions; - Coordinate geometry; - Sequences and series; - Trigonometry; - Calculus; - Numerical methods. Applications – students' study twoareas: - Statistics; - Mechanics.
- GCSE grade 7 in Mathematics. - a minimum of six separately identifiable GCSE subjects at grade 6 or above, OR an average of grade 6 in the best six GCSE subjects achieved - at least a grade 5 in English - at least a grade 5 in Mathematics
Assessment is linear with examinations at the end of the two-year course. The course is 100% examination based. Paper 1: Pure Maths 1 (100 marks). 2-hour duration. Paper 2: Pure Maths 2 (100 marks). 2-hour duration. Paper 3: Section A: Statistics (50 marks). Section B: Mechanics (50 marks). 2-hour duration.
