A-Level Maths - Further Maths

UPDATED 20170202 14:17:00

What is A2 Further Maths? If you get a grade 7 or above at GCSE you should seriously consider studying Further Mathematics. Mathematics is such a vast subject it is impossible to cover it all in one A Level. A Level Further Mathematics builds on some of the concepts met in A Level Maths and is able to extend these in to other areas. It attracts students who thoroughly enjoy the subject and are keen to extend their understanding and knowledge. Contrary to a common misconception, the majority of the course is no more difficult than A Level Mathematics. Students who study both actually perform better due to their increased understanding of Mathematics in general. Why study Further Maths? Further Mathematics is designed for students with an enthusiasm for Mathematics, many of whom will go on to degrees in Mathematics, Engineering, the Sciences and Economics. Students who study this course go off to University and find the content covered and skills acquired of great benefit. If you are considering a Mathematics or Engineering based degree you may find that some Universities will actually require that you have studied Further Mathematics. It is also good for those students who are considering applying for a competitive degree course, for example Oxbridge entry.
