A Level Further Mathematics can increase your chances of securing a top university place and in the longer term, the most elite positions in employment. There is a huge demand for Mathematicians, as demand for STEM experts is skyrocketing. There are of course many related fields at university, and our students commonly pursue degrees in areas such as Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science and Engineering. However, the skills and knowledge you will gain will help to open up a world of opportunity – one of the core skills you will gain for example includes being able to think quickly and logically.
