Further Mathematics

Entry Requirements

This course assumes certain prior mathematical knowledge beyond grade 8 at GCSE and proceeds at a brisk pace, so is only suitable for students who have already studied the FSMQ Additional Mathematics unit, or alternatively have undertaken some equivalent AS level study in Year 11. Minimum GCSE grade 8 and an additional qualification is desirable. If you do not fit this category but have a genuine interest in pursuing an A level in Further Mathematics, you should discuss this with the Subject leader for Mathematics during the first week of September. Note: This course is not recommended for students who wish to pursue medicine as a career; medical schools do not require knowledge of mathematics beyond A level standard and would strongly prefer their candidates to pursue a wider range of A level subjects.
