Why Maths Mathematics becomes increasingly challenging at A level, but also more enjoyable and rewarding. You may not use algebra or probability in your job every day, but the transferable skills of analysis, logic and problem solving will always be valuable. Some degree subjects, like Physics and Engineering, ask for a Maths A level as part of the entry requirements. Course content Two thirds of the course is Pure mathematics, which introduces new topics, covering: Proof; algebra and functions; coordinate geometry in the (x, y) plane; sequences and series; trigonometry; exponentials and logarithms; differentiation; integration; numerical methods and vectors. One third of the course consists of the applied content: Statistics topics include - statistical sampling, data presentation and interpretation, probability, statistical distributions, hypothesis testing. Mechanics topics include - Quantities and units in mechanics’ kinematics, forces and Newton’s Laws, moments.
