For the most capable mathematicians, the Further Mathematics A Level offers a challenging syllabus which is excellent preparation for those planning on studying Mathematics, Computing Science, Physics, Engineering or Economics at university: indeed it is almost essential for Oxbridge candidates in these subjects. You will require a Grade 9 at IGCSE and will typically qualify your IGCSE Mathematics, such as Additional Mathematics or GCSE Further Mathematics. The most successful students enjoy the challenge of applying their knowledge to unravel a problem and there is a degree of satisfaction and enjoyment from solving a mathematical problem.
As a minimum, students must achieve at least grade 7 (equivalent to A grade) in four separate subjects. In addition, all students must achieve a minimum grade of 6 (equivalent to a high B grade) in Mathematics and English GCSE or IGCSE. Please also note that a minimum of grade 7 is required in those subjects, or closely related subjects, that students wish to study for A Level with the exception of Mathematics where students will require a minimum grade 8 at GCSE and Further Mathematics where students will require a minimum grade 9 at GCSE. You will require a Grade 9 at IGCSE and will typically qualify your IGCSE Mathematics, such as Additional Mathematics or GCSE Further Mathematics.
There will be two options to study beyond the A-level mathematics syllabus. OPTION ONE: A Level Mathematics with AS Further Mathematics This fast-paced course is designed for those wanting a taste of Further Mathematics alongside three other A Level subjects. Students will cover the content required for the A Level of Mathematics and then continue onto an additional AS Further Mathematics course. This course will offer further study in Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Mechanics, introducing topics such as Complex Numbers, Matrices, Discrete Random Variables, and Work, Energy and Power. This course is only available to students who have studied FSMQ Additional Mathematics or GCSE Further Mathematics. OPTION TWO: A Level Mathematics and A Level Further Mathematics This is the course for those students who want to study Mathematics in depth as it counts as two A Level -option choices. Designed for those who have a passion for the subject, Further Mathematics is the perfect choice for you if you would like a fuller experience of Pure and Applied Mathematics, or are considering studying Mathematics at university. The syllabus will cover additional material in Pure Mathematics, Statistics and/or Mechanics, including vectors, Differential Equations, Poisson Distributions and Circular Motion. The assessment of both options will be by examination at the end of the course.
