A Level Further Mathematics

UPDATED 20161013 11:26:52

A Level Further Mathematics - An increasing number of students are choosing to take Further Maths and an increasing number of institutions look favourably on students who have followed this subject to AS or A level. It adds both breadth and depth to the study of Mathematics and introduces topics such as Complex Numbers and Linear Programming that are important parts of university study in many subjects. The course is taught by a dedicated team of subject specialists and, unlike some schools, Further Maths is allocated the same number of lessons as all other AS and A2 qualifications. Why study Further Mathematics at A Level? In addition to the reasons set out for the study of Mathematics, Further Maths introduces a number of topics that will support sciences at undergraduate level. These include Complex Numbers and proof at AS and Differential Equations at A2. The study of these topics strengthens the analytical skills of students and thus improves grades in “ordinary” Mathematics. It also introduces greater rigour into the subject. The increased variety of Applied options gives greater breadth to the subject and so leads to more options after A levels.
