AS Level The AS in single subject mathematics contains one pure paper and one applications paper, which can be taught alongside the A level. The pure paper is 2 hours long and the applications paper is one hour long. The AS in further mathematics contains one further pure paper and then the student will have a choice to take either a further pure or a further statistics or a further mechanics paper, all of which can be taught alongside the A level. Each paper is 1 hour and 30 minutes long. Mathematics A Level Pure Mathematics is essentially Algebra and Trigonometry developing from GCSE but there is no further Geometry or Arithmetic. The subject content becomes more abstract and demanding, the teaching more academic and students will need to be able to apply the concepts to fresh contexts and to produce well explained solutions involving a series of logical processes. The Application aspect of the course now contains a Statistics and a Mechanics element. There is no choice in which papers you can take at A Level single subject. Further Mathematics A Level Further Mathematics A Level consists of four exams, three of which are Further Pure and one will be either a Further Mechanics or a Further Statistics, students will need to choose the appropriate option, each of the four papers are 1 hour 30 minutes long.
