What will I be doing?

If you’re taking AS and A Level Mathematics, you’ll follow the WJEC syllabus. For those wanting to obtain an AS qualification, you’ll study three modules in one year. Three further modules need to be completed in year 2 to achieve an A Level. All modules are assessed by examinations.

Mathematics is a collection of subjects with a common approach to problem solving and modelling. Most of you will already have met the basic ideas involved in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry and probability. All these are individual topics but are frequently combined to model everyday situations and solve problems.

Unlike most other A Levels, Mathematics has different options:

  • Pure with mechanics - this course is most often combined with one or more of the physical science A Levels.
  • Pure with statistics - this option can be combined with a wide range of courses from across the campus, but partners subjects such as biology, psychology and geography particularly well.
  • Pure - this course is the most theoretical, with no statistics or mechanics.

Double Mathematics (a two-year course)

If you have a keen interest in Mathematics, you should consider Double Mathematics. This enables you to study pure mathematics, mechanics and statistics to an advanced standard.

Upon completion, you’ll achieve:
