This is an excellent course for students interested in studying mathematics, economics, computer science, engineering or any of the sciences at university. It is a highly regarded course for potential applicants to Oxford or Cambridge. The course involves studying units for an A Level mathematics qualification and additional units to gain an A Level in Further Maths alongside it.
