A challenging but fascinating course for committed and very able mathematicians with a deep interest in the subject for its own sake. You must study A Level Mathematics, and two other subjects alongside this course. Studying this qualification can give you a “head start” on degrees with high mathematical content. Further Mathematics both builds on and broadens the range of ideas met on the Maths A Level, for example, topics like differential equations and functions are extended, whilst completely new branches, such as complex numbers and matrices, widen your knowledge of this vast subject.
As a minimum, you will need (or equivalent to); GCSE Mathematics grade 7 GCSE English Language or Literature grade 4 plus three more GCSEs at grade 4. It is strongly recommended you have: GCSE Mathematics grade 8 or above. You will study Further Maths, Mathematics and two other A Levels/Extended Certificates as part of a four-unit core Study Programme to achieve four qualifications.
There are three exams, each one is two hours in duration.
