Mathematics (Further)

Course summary

Further Mathematics is a separate A-level from Mathematics; it extends the core topics and introduces new material normally encountered during the first year of a degree course. It is therefore a particularly demanding A-level, although many find it even more exciting and rewarding than single Maths. Anyone considering applying to a top university to study a subject with substantial mathematical content would be well advised to give serious thought to taking this option; in recent years, a good number of the students taking Further Maths have gained Oxbridge places.
