Where can it lead?
English Literature can lead to the study of English at university.
It is also valuable for careers which involve creativity such
as marketing and PR, or empathy such as social work and
policing, because it encourages you to view events from
different perspectives and to think about the ways other people
experience life.
There are three further pure units available and any of the
applied units listed for A Level Mathematics may be used
towards A Level Further Mathematics. There are additional
statistics and mechanics units available only for Further
Mathematics.
Where can it lead?
Studying A Level Further Mathematics is excellent preparation
for a degree in Mathematics. Most leading university
mathematics departments encourage you to take Further
Mathematics at A Level as it introduces a wider range of pure
and applied content, such as matrices and complex numbers.
Students who have studied Further Mathematics find the
transition to university far more straightforward. Some leading
universities now specify Further Mathematics as an entry
requirement for their Mathematics degrees.
