Mathematics

Course summary

A two year course with an entry requirement of grade 6 or higher in GCSE Maths. It is appropriate for strong mathematicians who do not wish to take the full A Level but who would benefit from some maths to support their university applications. This course would typically suit those taking Science A Levels, or those wishing to pursue a degree course requiring some mathematical ability e.g. Psychology. AS Maths is harder than Core Maths, and two thirds of the content is Pure Maths. The AS course is not generally accepted in support of Physics or Engineering at university, which require the full A Level.
