It is a highly regarded qualification for university entrance in many courses. By studying Mathematics at A Level, pupils therefore give themselves the option of a wide variety of courses, at the best universities nationally. Almost all successful A Level Mathematics pupils will have achieved grades of 9-7 at GCSE. Although it is possible for pupils with grade 6 at GCSE to take Mathematics at A Level, the intellectual demand and quantity of work load make the course very challenging.
