An A Level in Mathematics can lead to Higher Education opportunities in Mathematics, Physics, Biomedical Science, Molecular Biology, Engineering (Mechanical, Chemical and Electrical), Aerospace, Computer Science and Economics. An A Level in Mathematics is often an entry requirement for science-based subjects.
