Pure Mathematics continues developing the algebra, calculus, geometry and trigonometry studied for GCSE. A Level Mathematics consists of Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics. A Level Mathematics is an interesting course in itself but it is also generally regarded as a very useful support for other subjects. Physicists and Economists find certain techniques in Pure Mathematics essential to their course and Mechanics is also studied in Physics although it is given a slightly different treatment. Subjects such as Geography, Biology, Chemistry, Psychology and Business Studies make varying use of statistical techniques.
Success in Mathematics is dependent on a high standard of proficiency in algebraic techniques and so we recommend that prospective candidates are expecting to attain a Grade 7 or above at GCSE and that their algebraic skills are particularly sound. The A Level course is demanding and requires consistent application from Sixth Form students.
A Level Mathematics: 2 Pure papers (2 hours) and 1 Applied paper (1 hour)
