Further Mathematics is an additional A level qualification taken alongside A level Mathematics (please see details on the previous pages). It cannot be taken in isolation. A level Further Mathematics comprises two core Pure Maths papers and at least two additional papers, where you choose to specialise in Mechanics, Statistics, Further Pure Mathematics, Decision Mathematics or a combination of these. The course is suitable for very able mathematicians considering reading Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Economics or Computer Studies at university, or indeed, anyone who relishes an intellectual challenge.
Entry requirements for each subject will be detailed accordingly as a guideline (usually a grade 6 in the subject studied).
The A level in Further Mathematics consists of at least four externally-examined papers. Students may opt to do more than two optional units, in which case their two highest scoring options are taken into consideration. Students must complete all assessments in May/June in any single year. Paper 1: Core Pure Mathematics 1 Paper 2: Core Pure Mathematics 2 Paper 3: Further Mathematics Option 1 Paper 4: Further Mathematics Option 2 Each paper is: • A written examination of 1 hour and 30 minutes • 25% of the qualification • 75 marks
