Entry requirements - It is strongly recommended that you have studied Mathematics to GCSE (e.g. Grades 6-9 or B-A*) or equivalent level before starting this course. You must already have an A-Level in Maths or be studying A-Level Maths alongside Further Maths. Further Maths isn't available as a separate course because the content involved follows a particular order in relation to A-Level Maths. If you intend to study both A-Level Maths and A-Level Further Maths with Oxbridge, we can guide you as to which topics you will need to cover.
