A-Level Mathematics: What to Expect

Choosing to study mathematics A-level is an exciting step that opens up a world of opportunities for your future. While it’s a big leap from GCSE, the skills and knowledge you’ll gain make the challenge worth it. You'll explore a variety of topics in greater depth, including pure mathematics, statistics, and mechanics, all designed to build your confidence in problem-solving and analytical thinking. Typically, the course is studied over two years. During your first year, you’ll tackle the AS Level (Advanced Subsidiary), followed by the A2 in the second year. Each stage builds on the foundation of your GCSE knowledge, gradually introducing more advanced concepts to help you grow as a mathematician. You’ll start by revisiting the core ideas of GCSE mathematics to ensure you feel confident with the basics. From there, you’ll progress to exciting new topics such as calculus, logarithms, and functions, while also expanding your understanding of trigonometry and vectors. Every step of the way, you’ll be developing skills that will not only enhance your academic achievements but also prepare you for a variety of maths careers and further maths education opportunities.

Succeed in A-Level Maths

Making the jump from GCSE to A-level Maths can feel like a big leap, with more complex topics and a greater focus on independent study. But don’t worry – at Tutorful, we’re here to support you every step of the way. Whether you need expert tutors, practical tips, or clever tricks to get ready for the course and exam preparations, we’ve got you covered. Here’s what you need to know about A-level Maths exams: You’ll sit three papers in June. Pure Mathematics 1 and Pure Mathematics 2 cover the foundations and advanced concepts. A combined Statistics and Mechanics paper challenges you to apply what you’ve learned in real-world contexts. A-level exam boards, ranked in order of increasing difficulty, are often considered as follows: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, OCR MEI, and Cambridge. To build a strong foundation in A-level maths, it's helpful to focus on key topics early on. These include the three methods for solving quadratic equations (factorising, using the quadratic formula, and completing the square), as well as mastering surds, indices, and understanding the differences between the gradient of a line and the gradient of a curve. Additionally, having a solid grasp of trigonometry and the unit circle is essential for success. With the right support, preparation, and mindset, you can approach A-level Maths with confidence and succeed. Let's make learning work for you!

Nicholas H
So pleased to have found Nicholas, a retired head of maths who is exactly who we need to get my son (who has just completed GCSE exams) ready for and supported through Maths A level. Nicolas is an expert and very generous with his time. He spent a little while getting to know us and what we hoped to achieve. My son looks forward to his lessons and is enjoying making progress. He is already looking at A level questions but at a pace he is comfortable with, so he is happy and confident.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Is A-level maths very difficult?

Maths A level can be challenging, but with dedication and perseverance, it is achievable. The difficulty of Maths A level varies from student to student and depends on individual strengths and weaknesses, as well as the level of effort put into studying and practising the subject. It is important to note that Maths A level requires strong problem-solving skills, logical thinking, and a solid foundation in mathematical concepts.

Is A Level Maths much harder than GCSE?

Yes, A Level Maths is a big step up from GCSE – you’ll have a broader range of topics to get your head around and will go into more depth.

Is Maths A Level worth it?

Yes! A Level Maths comes with a ton of benefits. Not only will it help you to develop valuable, transferable skills, but it’s also a sought-after qualification that will stand you in good stead in your future studies and career.

Is it worth doing A-level maths?

Maths A-Level is highly valuable, building essential skills like problem-solving and logical reasoning. It opens doors to top universities and careers in fields like engineering, finance, and data analysis while offering personal satisfaction and practical applications.

How is A-level Maths graded?

A-Level grades are determined through a combination of coursework, practical assessments, and written exams. Each exam is graded on a scale from A* to E, with A* representing the highest achievement. Grade boundaries for each exam are set by the exam board, reflecting the difficulty of the specific exam. For instance, achieving an A* in a particularly difficult exam might require a score of 90%, whereas an A* in a less challenging exam might only need 80%. Once all exam results are finalized, the overall A-Level grade is calculated by combining the grades from each exam to form an average. For example, a student earning an A* in one exam, an A in another, and a B in a third would have an overall grade of A*AB.
