Maths A Level
Often thought of as a supporting subject, the content of A level maths builds
a strong foundation of techniques which you can apply in other subject areas.
Your algebraic skills will need to be good and you will be expected to spend a
substantial amount of time outside the classroom with independent study. You
will spend two-thirds of your time studying core mathematics and one-third
studying an applied module which will complement your other A level subjects and
your career choice. So, if you thrive on solving problems, don’t mind spending
ages on a question, then you’re are going to enjoy this
subject.
