Further Maths is a unique A Level that offers students who have traditionally excelled in Mathematics the chance to look even deeper at key mathematical principles. You earn two distinct A Level qualifications: one in A Level Mathematics and one in A Level Further Mathematics. There are several reasons why students should consider studying Further Mathematics: • If you enjoy Mathematics then what is not to like about doing more of it! The Further Mathematics course offers the greatest insight into what real mathematics is about and develops the subject to provide a fuller understanding of both its applied and abstract nature. The extra mathematics practice/lessons also really help to consolidate success in the single A Level Mathematics qualification. • Students wanting to study Mathematics or Engineering at a top university will generally have been expected to have studied Further Mathematics at A Level. Students applying for these courses who have not studied Further Mathematics are at a disadvantage. • The content in Further Mathematics often overlaps with first year degree courses in several related disciplines such as Chemistry, Physics and Economics. Students who have already covered this content in the sixth form have an advantage over those that have not. • Despite its unique place in post 16 education, Further Mathematics is still in the top 15 of the most popular A Level subjects taken by students.
