Why study Mathematics Analysis and Approaches? For some, it is the sheer joy of solving problems. For others it provides a means of achieving greater understanding and insight into the world around them. Mathematics is the language of the Universe – Much of modern theoretical Physics is Mathematics. Quantum Theory and Relativity are mathematical theories that attempt to explain the laws of the universe. Of course, Relativity can be summarised in the one mathematical formula that almost everyone knows E = mc2. Mathematics and numbers in particular, may be the one thing that we are likely to have in common with any life out in the universe. Modern biological theories depend heavily on statistical and other mathematical techniques. This course is ideal for students who enjoy algebra and abstract Mathematics. They will have mastered GCSE algebra and problem-solving skills and be keen to develop these further. It is a challenging course with a large emphasis on proof and analysis of a range of more complex mathematical concepts.
GCSE Grade 7 in Mathematics.
External Assessment: Paper 1 – Non Calculator – 1.5 hours – 40% Section A comprises of short 6 mark questions Section B comprises of longer questions ranging from 10 – 20 marks per question.
