Maths

Course summary

A Level mathematics is split into pure mathematics and applied mathematics. There are 2 pure modules and 1 applied module to study. Pure mathematics is the theoretical mathematics that underpins the ability to study applied mathematics. Applied mathematics is the study of real life situations that are modelled mathematically using the theory learnt in pure. The Applied modules in A Level mathematics are split into statistics, which concerns the collection, analysis and interpretation of data, and mechanics, which deals with the motion of objects and the effect of forces upon them. This module has a large overlap with forces and motion in physics. What you will do: · Study pure modules— building and extending GCSE knowledge · Apply this to areas of A Level mathematics, such as statistics and mechanics, showing you new ways to model real life situations mathematically. · Develop your analytical thinking. · Have fun solving problems!
