At the heart of Mathematics lies problem-solving. Mathematicians have an appetite for a challenge, a desire to wrestle with problems for which the solution is not immediately obvious and show tenacity, perseverance and imagination. Mathematics also teaches you to be logical, methodical and meticulous, skills that are relevant to and complement a myriad of other subjects. If you love tackling problems, if you have an appetite for a challenge, if you are tenacious, if you see the beauty in geometry and you appreciate the elegance of an algebraic proof, it is for you. It is also for you if you enjoyed your GCSE studies and are eager to learn more. A strong work ethic and the ability to study independently are essential.
A typical academic profile of a girl entering Year 12 is 10 GCSEs, with the majority in grades 7 to 9. These must include English and Mathematics at Grade 6 or above AND at least a Grade 7 in those subjects you wish to study at A Level (Grade 9 in Mathematics to study Further Mathematics). At least a Grade 8 in GCSE or IGCSE Mathematics.
Papers 1 and 2: Pure Mathematics (proof, algebra, functions, coordinate geometry in the (x, y plane), sequences and series, trigonometry, exponentials and logarithms, differentiation, integration, numerical methods and vectors). Paper 3: Statistics & Mechanics Students can use a calculator in all of the examination papers. We recommend using a Graphics Calculator which helps with visualising solutions.
