Mathematics

Assessment

The first two exams are based on the Pure content of the two year course. The A-level content builds upon what was taught at AS level and then takes topics further to answer more complex problems. The third exam is based on the Mechanics and Statistics part of the course. This again builds upon the AS part of the course, taking the topics further and covering a wider range of topics. All the exams at A-level are 2 hours long and are each worth one third of the final grade.
