A Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics are significantly more challenging than GCSE Mathematics, but most boys find them correspondingly more interesting and rewarding. Both are regarded as “facilitating subjects” by universities and the logical and analytical thinking skills developed in Mathematics are also highly valued by employers. If you are considering a degree in a STEM subject, Mathematics is essential and Further Mathematics is likely to benefit your application.
We require a minimum of six grades at Grade 6 and at least a grade 7 in each of the subjects to be studied at A level, as well as grade 7 or above in English and Maths where required. GCSE grade 8 or above in Mathematics
There are four papers which last 1 hour and 30 minutes each. All papers contain 75 marks and have equal weighting to the overall grade. Paper 1 and 2: Core Pure Mathematics 1 and 2 Proof, Complex numbers, Matrices, Further algebra and functions, Further calculus, Further vectors, Polar coordinates, Hyperbolic functions, Differential equations Paper 3: Further Statistics 1 Discrete probability distributions, Poisson and binomial distributions, geometric and negative binomial distributions, hypothesis testing, Central Limit Theorem, chi squared tests, probability generating functions Paper 4: Decision Mathematics 1 Algorithms, graph theory, critical path analysis, linear programming
