Mathematics (Further)

Entry Requirements

To achieve success in Mathematics at A Level requires considerable commitment and a willingness to work hard, alongside strong ability in the subject, demonstrated by a minimum of Grade 7 at GCSE. The majority of those taking Further Mathematics A Level will also have taken Further Mathematics at GCSE, although this is not a strict requirement. Mathematics A Level works well as a choice alongside any other subjects. There is a significant overlap with the Sciences and Technology as well as the numerate areas of subjects like Economics and Geography. Students considering reading Mathematics, Computer Science, Natural Sciences, Engineering or Economics at Oxbridge or other top universities should, if they are able, very seriously consider Further Mathematics. Many students study Mathematics at university and it is a much sought-after degree in the financial and technological industries as well as elsewhere.
