You will study Pure Maths (two thirds of the course), Mechanics (one sixth of the course) and Statistics (one sixth of the course). Some of the content develops ideas introduced in A Level Maths, whilst much of it introduces completely new ideas. You will therefore broaden and deepen your mathematical knowledge and skills. • Pure Maths – Complex numbers, Matrices, Further algebra and functions, Polar coordinates, Further calculus, Hyperbolic functions, Further vectors, Differential equations, Proof, Numerical methods. • Mechanics – Momentum and collisions, Work, energy and power, Circular motion, Centres of mass and moments, Dimensional analysis. • Statistics – Discrete random variables, Poisson distribution, Continuous random variables, Chi squared tests for association, Exponential distribution, Confidence intervals, Inference – one sample t distribution, Type I and Type II errors.
GCSE Grade 8 in Maths.
The course is assessed externally through three written exam papers sat at the end of the two years, each lasting two hours and contributing a third of the A Level marks. Paper 1 and Paper 2 – Pure Maths. Paper 3 – One section on Mechanics and one section on Statistics
