Mathematical Studies

Course summary

Mathematics in context is a new Level 3 qualification designed to support the mathematical content of other qualifications e.g. A Level Biology, Business, Computing, Geography, and Psychology. It will also be hugely useful for any student wishing to study a university course with some mathematical content. The course covers four key areas: applications of statistics, probability, linear programming and sequences and growth.Topics already covered at GCSE are developed further, with particular focus on their real life application. About 20% of the course will be totally new content.
