Mathematics (Further)

Course summary

Mathematics is an essential qualification for university courses in Engineering, Economics, Architecture, the Sciences and, of course, Mathematics itself; and for others (e.g. Law, Linguistics, Medicine) it is strongly valued. Prestigious universities may additionally require Further Mathematics for some courses. Beyond university it is a qualification highly respected by many employers. Although mathematical techniques constitute a central component in the applied sciences, the discipline is above all else aesthetic; pupils who successfully negotiate Mathematics at Sixth Form are those who are broadly sympathetic with this view.
