This course is studied alongside Mathematics A level and is ideally suited for those students with a genuine love of solving challenging problems and who intend studying Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or Programming at university. You will be introduced to advanced concepts and techniques, such as complex numbers, matrices and vectors, and how they relate to real life applications. You will also cover a relatively new branch of Mathematics investigating algorithms, game theory and critical path analysis which is used widely in industry.
We ask that all students achieve grade 4 or equivalent (a Level 2 pass) in at least 4 subjects, alongside the following subject specific entry requirements: • Students must be studying A level Maths
At the completion of the A Level course (Year 13) the student will sit 4 papers. Paper 1 – Pure content (1 hour 30 minutes, 75 marks) Paper 2 – Pure content (1 hour 30 minutes, 75 marks) Paper 3A – Further Pure Mathematics 1(1 hour 30 minutes, 75 marks) Paper 4D – Decision 1 (1 hour 30 minutes, 75 marks) Each paper is worth 25% of the overall mark. There is no coursework.
