Mathematics equips you with a uniquely powerful set of tools to understand the world around you. This includes problem-solving, number skills, abstract thinking and logic to name but a few. Mathematics is all around you, in all you do. It is in mobile devices, architecture (ancient and modern), art, medicine, finance, engineering, and even sports. You will need a fascination with numbers, problem-solving, the ability to work independently, determination and self-discipline. The course consists of three elements: Pure, Mechanics (applied) and Statistics. All three elements are compulsory. Two-thirds of the course is taken studying Pure topics such as: • Proof. • Algebra and functions. • Coordinate geometry. • Sequences & series. • Trigonometry. • Exponentials & logarithms. • Calculus. • Vectors. One-sixth of the course is taken studying Statistics topics such as: • Statistical sampling. • Probability. • Hypothesis testing. • Statistical distributions. • Data presentation & interpretation. One-sixth of the course is taken studying Mechanics topics such as: • Quantities and units. • Kinematics. • Moments. • Forces and Newton’s Laws.
These vary for each A-Level subject, but you will need a minimum of 5 GCSEs at grade 5 or equivalent, including English and Mathematics. Many subjects require grade 6 or above to study them at A Level (please see our subject guides). New students will be given a conditional offer based on their GCSE results, an interview and a reference from their current school. Grade 7 in Mathematics
Students will sit for three examinations. All last two hours and are of equal weight. • PAPER 1: Pure Mathematics. • PAPER 2: Pure Mathematics. • PAPER 3: Statistics and Mechanics
