This course is for students who want to continue studying mathematics after GCSE. You'll already be familiar with some of the topics but the A level will give you the chance to study these and some new ones in much greater depth. You'll need a good grasp of the topics you covered at GCSE and confidence to take your skills to another level. Maths is a facilitating subject which means it will prepare you for a wide range of degree subjects. It can be a recommended or in fact a necessary requirement for many mathematical, technical and scientific subjects at university. It's a good combination with most other subjects you can study at A level and will give you a useful set of transferable skills including logical reasoning, problem solving and analytical thinking skills that can lead to many different careers.
