Students studying AS/A2 Further Mathematics are expected to be studying A-Level Mathematics. A-level Further Mathematics is made up of six units. The four Further Pure units build upon the techniques in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Calculus developed from the Pure Core units as well as introducing topics such as complex numbers, matrices, proof, hyperbolic functions, polar coordinates and differential equations. Mathematical applications make up the remainder of the qualification and there are various options to suit the needs of individual students. The applications fall into three strands: Decision – networks, algorithms, sorting, linear programming, mathematical modelling. Mechanics – forces, energy, motion, kinematics, projectiles, mathematical modelling, moments, collisions and stability. Statistics – probability, data handling, probability distributions, estimation, correlation and regression and hypothesis testing. All units are of equal weighting and are assessed by an exam of 1 hour 30 minutes
