Introduction
People with strong mathematical skills are in demand and valued by employers and universities. Mathematics is a ‘must-have’ A-Level for degree-level study in Physical Sciences, Computer Science, all branches of Engineering and of course, Mathematics. If you are thinking of choosing Physics, Computer Science or Chemistry at A-Level, Mathematics should go with them.
The course is split into pure mathematics (two-thirds), mechanics (one-sixth) and statistics (one-sixth). Pure mathematics extends many concepts from GCSE, including algebra, functions, graphs, trigonometry, and vectors. It also introduces the new concepts of differentiation (how ‘steep’ a curved graph is) and integration (how much area is enclosed by a graph’s curve). Statistics extends the concepts studied at GCSE and includes much more emphasis on probability, including probability models and hypothesis testing. Mechanics is the study of how objects move and the forces that affect their motion.
