halp i have a dilemma on one hand, i LOVE maths with a passion so much so that it might be the cause of my loneliness. im definitely doing it in my a-levels next year, and i'm really tempted to do further maths too as a fourth subject. however, my time management is bad and so is my motivation if i get bored (this doesn't apply to maths, maths is never boring). i'm pretty set on doing physics and chemistry too, which are known to be hard a-levels, so im worried that doing further maths on top of this will be too much. i think i'll be picking these subjects because i enjoy them a lot and they are my strongest ones at the moment, but arghh help
Of course it will be hard work doing 4 a levels (especially doing further maths as there is so much to learn), but if you enjoy maths and have a passion for the subject i'd 100% take further maths, it really develops your knowledge! - physics is also great to do along further maths!
I may be a bit late coz your either in the same boat as me currently or you dropped one, I’ve basically had to let chemistry go and accept that I don’t have the time to get an A* in all 4. further maths and physics take up most of my time and maths barely any because FM improves your normal maths a lot
I had calculus for math and physics majors at U Iowa -- no calculator allowed on any of the exams. Try adding strings of improper fractions left over from integration under a time limit ;)
That depends on how it is being taught. Also keep in mind that many people like to lie to you with statistics. Being able to identify those lies gives you an edge in real life situations. Despite my love of physics, I would say that to the average person knowing some statistics is more useful than knowing some mechanics. If you know both, great for you!
nauur cuz i wanna take alevel, being in y11 and just nearing my first proper mocks im thinking of taking alevel and although I was extremely belittled throughout secondary school and considered not put out for math, I've gone into highest set and am prepping for alevel :) like im averaging around 9s and one 7 throughout y10-11 and am fully prepared to sit my first mock. this video genuinely helped to calm my nerves LOLL thanks
starting a level in a couple weeks, I’m extremely confused as universities require a* maths for computer science. I’m not strong with maths (grade 6) but I got a 9 in computer science. What should I do?
I got a 6 in maths but I’m currently working at an A/B from AS - I know people who got a 9 in maths and are working at E’s and D’s so GCSEs don’t define you and what you are working at
A tutor can really help, it has taken people from a C grade to and A Grade, a tutor will really help you understand the concepts which is the whole point of maths, understanding and applying concepts.
That’s like the same with me, I started this school year in Foundation being ungraded and now I recently got a 6 on my test. I just did any math mock and it went pretty good since I revised a lot for it, I hope I get a 7.
I’m proper worrying about A level maths, because I’ve been accepted for A level maths but I’ve never even done a higher paper, I’ve only done 1.5 months of maths. I barley know any Higher gcse maths, and it’s a week until I go back rip.

Hi! I am in year 10 and will be going to year 11 in September. I want to work something related with business and economics and I have asked my teacher if I should do maths a level. He said to get into top universities, i definitely have to. I am okay with maths but I have trouble with algebra. Is a level maths mostly algebra? I'm not good at physics. I am good with other topics in maths except for algebra. I enjoy the topics i understand but not the hard topics- what do you recommend?
Hello! A Level Maths is very useful for business & economics related careers. A Level maths is heavily algebra based, but not all algebra. It is a vital skill you will need to learn to take a level, but as long as you have the basics (factoring, expanding, quadratics, algebraic fractions, trig) then you should be ok because these topics are slightly recapped & then built on at a level. I would recommend you do it! It is a fun course!
Hi I’m looking to take maths, business, economics and history, I mainly want to do engineering more specifically aeronautic or civil. Will I need physics or other science as a must because I don’t want to take science. Also, if I have to can I take applied science for engineering
Don't take business as it's basically economics but simpler. Uni's always prefer econ than business, I don't know if you need physics but as you're taking maths it definitely has elements of physics in it
If you’re looking into engineering, physics is a must have. As Seth said, don’t take business. You should pick physics instead of business and if you don’t like it you have a couple weeks where you can switch A-Levels (however this would result in you being a bit behind on content).

If you’re already good at maths & enjoy it then consider taking it. Don’t listen to anybody else apart from yourself. If you want to do - do it. If you don’t, don’t! 😁
I'm terrified of maths. I've decided to taken it ( I got a grade 7 ). Before stepping into my first lesson my maths teacher talked to me and a few other student privately and told us that we were most likely going to fail, and was really pushing us to move to another subject.
Bro honestly I had the same concern I got a 6 at GCSE and am doing A level maths now finding it pretty easy so far. Don't worry about your grades just make sure you like maths. If you genuinely enjoy maths you will do well.
Right now I am doing GCSE stats and im currently getting high grade 6 in my mocks would this grade help me alot in A level or will i have to learn some completely new things all together?
@harry surplus i got a grade 6 in maths gcse this year i really do want to take A level maths but im quite nervous whats the best way to get good grades in maths A level such as a grade 9 hopefully how do you improve
As someone who’s doing A level maths and got a 7 at GCSE it’s not as hard as people make it out. You just need to revise a couple hours a week which you should do anyway
@@wasd4542 Like in A level maths if you understand all the concepts and know al the formulas and stuff then it shouldn't be really that hard. But in further mathematics there are questions which really require out of the box thinking and stuff
if you're willing to work hard and challenge yourself then you'll be great! it's when you don't interact with your class and ask questions you struggle
@@flixemerson4191 my school doesn’t do it and I also didn’t do the best at it as I was dumb and didn’t revise it at all at gcse. My school does offer a btec in IT but i can’t do further maths if I pick jt
@@QuandaleRizzler32 ok fair, i would say just do some coding and learn about computer science at home through sixth form so you wont be so behind when you get to uni
hey, the A level course runs over two years, so AS level is the topics you learn in the first year, whereas A level is what you learn in the second year. Usually people use the term ‘A level’ more as they refer to the topics you learn over the two years :)
Please help me! I thought i wanted to do computer science, and i am currently predicted a grade 8 in it. However i have to do maths along side of it, and i really struggle! Im barely a grade 7 (but that is only because i have a great teacher and i try REALLY hard) i would dread taking maths as it is so hard. I dont know what to do!!!!
Hellloo! Glad you found the video useful! A level maths is challenging & can be hard at times, but it’s definitely a good a level to have if your wanting to do computer science. Like I said in the video you are slowly introduced to a level topics & it’s not really hard as soon as you start. If you are willing to work, you want to do well & have a positive mindset I’m sure you would be able to do a level maths. Like you said, you’re trying really hard at the minute and are on a grade 7 so that’s brilliant. Most colleges require a grade 6/7 for a level maths. Hope that answer helped you slightly! Keep me updated on what you decide to do!!
Hi, i was trying to check out your book on the web address you have provided but it is apparently not live or perhaps domain connected to the website...
Hi want to become an engineer and for most engineering maths physics is needed everyone i speak to says maths is really hard.at A level im currently about a grade 7 at gcse maths shud i take Maths a level and is it as hard as people say
Kinda late but its down to practice and just seeing a lot of different situations. Don't be afraid to grt things wrong and follow ideas that you come up with that might not lead to the answer. Generally, IBP it's best for products of functions or of you have a function which you can differentiate using u= f(x) and dv/dx =1. Remember that a lot of the time when you have fractions, partial fractions is really useful and also re writing the numerator and breaking up the fraction into multiple fractions can help. Use substitution for fractions with complicated denominators as it's easier to work with a complicated numerator and also use it when you can spot a derivative being cancelled out or a trig identity. Also remember to look for f'(x) /f(x) because that just integrates to ln(x) 👍🏽👍🏽
I got a 9 in maths and want to do A level maths this September however I am not so good with physics do you think this will heavily affect my understanding of the mechanics topic?? BTW great video, it was very interesting and informative. 👍
I also got a 9 in maths but idk if I should do it. I’ve always been told ‘don’t do maths if you don’t need it cuz it’s very hard’ so I picked economics instead but I don’t have an interest in it.

@@hafsamohamed9290 A level maths is difficult I agree but A levels are entirely your choice and what you feel you will enjoy don't put yourself in a subject your not gonna enjoy, trust me follow your heart and make the decision that will suit you best. ☺
@@zq1921 Yep, I'm in yr13 so A levels will be this year. It was difficult at the beginning because it is a big jump from GCSE and a lot harder as it is not as easy to get to the answer however with lots of exam practice I feel my confidence is a lot better.
@@HarrySurplus I got a grade8 in maths, I want to do it also with business studies and economics. Any opinions on if I should do it. Have to get them submitted by monday
I've had a search online and I think it is. Do check with your school though as the calculator has functions that you won't use at GCSE ,so might be better to get a different one such as the Casio FX-85GTX!
I got a grade 5 GSCE and my teachers have told me I cant do A level maths, and advised me to take gsce higher paper, or should i just pick another A level subject, Please help
Hello! It's hard to give you an answer as I'm not 100% sure on your situation, but like I mentioned in the video most colleges/sixth forms require a grade 6 or above to do a level maths. If you're wanting to do a maths or maths related degree at university then do speak to your teachers again to see what you can do, because you will need a level maths for a maths or maths related degree. However, if you're your not thinking of that then maybe do have a look at other a levels you can take and which will suit you! Hope that helps 😌

@@wasd4542 Exactly. But further mathematics is a lot harder
@@wasd4542 Like in A level maths if you understand all the concepts and know al the formulas and stuff then it shouldn't be really that hard. But in further mathematics there are questions which really require out of the box thinking and stuff
A level maths just relies on how much you understand concepts. If you want to challenge yourself take further mathematics
if you're willing to work hard and challenge yourself then you'll be great! it's when you don't interact with your class and ask questions you struggle
If I had grade 5
Will I able to take a levels maths?
are you ? pls respond
@@skoldzz5425 no
Later I dropped it...
Am I good with it
Is there geometry?
I haven’t studied physics in my GCSE! Would i struggle doing mechanics???
Nope! You shouldn’t
What do you think about the combination of Maths, further maths, business and media studies for a computer science degree?
thats good, you need maths for a comp sci degree, but why not take comp sci for ur a levels?
@@flixemerson4191 my school doesn’t do it and I also didn’t do the best at it as I was dumb and didn’t revise it at all at gcse. My school does offer a btec in IT but i can’t do further maths if I pick jt
@@QuandaleRizzler32 ok fair, i would say just do some coding and learn about computer science at home through sixth form so you wont be so behind when you get to uni
@@flixemerson4191 I was thinking about doing a gap year for uni where I would focus on learning code and computer science knowledge
@@QuandaleRizzler32 nahhh dont think its necessary, plus you might forget ur maths knowledge.
I thought you just need to pick either statistics or mechanics !! am I wrong ? pleas answer
It may have changed ! This video was filmed a while ago when I was doing my a levels
Hi bro, do we need to get 90 individually in P3 and P4 for A star or overall 180 is needed for A star.
I got a 6 in maths and my sixth form has allowed to me to take it for a levels do you think I would be able to cope as ppl have been putting me off
Absolutely!
I got a 6 and I may not be allowed, I'll have to fight for it!
Jezmo why’s that? The entry requirement to do a level maths is a 6 in my school
Jezmo anyways good luck !

Could i use a texas instruments 83 for a level?
What is this difference between As-level and A-levels??
hey, the A level course runs over two years, so AS level is the topics you learn in the first year, whereas A level is what you learn in the second year. Usually people use the term ‘A level’ more as they refer to the topics you learn over the two years :)
Please help me! I thought i wanted to do computer science, and i am currently predicted a grade 8 in it. However i have to do maths along side of it, and i really struggle! Im barely a grade 7 (but that is only because i have a great teacher and i try REALLY hard) i would dread taking maths as it is so hard. I dont know what to do!!!!
Also this has given me so much confidence thank you!!
Hellloo! Glad you found the video useful! A level maths is challenging & can be hard at times, but it’s definitely a good a level to have if your wanting to do computer science. Like I said in the video you are slowly introduced to a level topics & it’s not really hard as soon as you start. If you are willing to work, you want to do well & have a positive mindset I’m sure you would be able to do a level maths. Like you said, you’re trying really hard at the minute and are on a grade 7 so that’s brilliant. Most colleges require a grade 6/7 for a level maths. Hope that answer helped you slightly! Keep me updated on what you decide to do!!
@@HarrySurplus thank you so much!!! It has given me so much confidence in my decision! I will definitely let you know!
Hi, i was trying to check out your book on the web address you have provided but it is apparently not live or perhaps domain connected to the website...
My book isn't available anymore :( sorry
the website isnt working
What if someone hasn’t studied physics in gcse and now they’re planning to take maths in A levels? Does it make any difference?
Nope I wouldn’t think so
how much will you struggle if you don’t interact with the class/lesson?
i’m very very bad at doing so and i’m worried it’ll impact me greatly
You’ve got to interact with lessons!
i got a grade 6 in my mocks, do you think i should still do a level maths or is the jump too big?
I got a 7 in maths and im struggling doinmaths alevel only do it if u really love it and don’t care abt your social life
@@Deezmxc damn so it's really that hard
@@Deezmxchow u doing now?

Do you have any advice on integration and how to know what method of integration to use as I’m struggling so much. Thanks
Kinda late but its down to practice and just seeing a lot of different situations. Don't be afraid to grt things wrong and follow ideas that you come up with that might not lead to the answer. Generally, IBP it's best for products of functions or of you have a function which you can differentiate using u= f(x) and dv/dx =1. Remember that a lot of the time when you have fractions, partial fractions is really useful and also re writing the numerator and breaking up the fraction into multiple fractions can help. Use substitution for fractions with complicated denominators as it's easier to work with a complicated numerator and also use it when you can spot a derivative being cancelled out or a trig identity. Also remember to look for f'(x) /f(x) because that just integrates to ln(x) 👍🏽👍🏽
is the graphical calculator allowed in exams?
it was allowed when i did my a levels, but do check with the exam boards regulations!
would the first calculator still do all the stuff i need for a level?
yes!
is it is possible to get decend grade in a2 after having bad grade in as level?
if you're willing to work and practice maths ... then anything is possible i say
I got a 9 in maths and want to do A level maths this September however I am not so good with physics do you think this will heavily affect my understanding of the mechanics topic??
BTW great video, it was very interesting and informative. 👍
I also got a 9 in maths but idk if I should do it. I’ve always been told ‘don’t do maths if you don’t need it cuz it’s very hard’ so I picked economics instead but I don’t have an interest in it. I forgot everything in maths cuz of the summer (except basics ofc) but idk if I should pick it. What do you think?
@@hafsamohamed9290 A level maths is difficult I agree but A levels are entirely your choice and what you feel you will enjoy don't put yourself in a subject your not gonna enjoy, trust me follow your heart and make the decision that will suit you best. ☺
@@K_10107 how is a level maths, did you pick it?
@@zq1921 Yep, I'm in yr13 so A levels will be this year. It was difficult at the beginning because it is a big jump from GCSE and a lot harder as it is not as easy to get to the answer however with lots of exam practice I feel my confidence is a lot better.
@@K_10107 damn thanks for the help. Also I want to ask should I get a folder for a level maths or will a notebook be ok
so i want to take a level maths to help with physics, but i’m at a level 5/6 rn and will probably get a 6 at gcse. do you think it’s worth it?
You might find it hard
at a 5/6 you may need to work harder than others at 7/8/9 however, if you enjoy maths & are willing to work then its definitely possible
@@HarrySurplus I got a grade8 in maths, I want to do it also with business studies and economics. Any opinions on if I should do it. Have to get them submitted by monday

Is Casio fx991ex suitable for gsce
I've had a search online and I think it is. Do check with your school though as the calculator has functions that you won't use at GCSE ,so might be better to get a different one such as the Casio FX-85GTX!
Ok
Is Casio fx cg50 suitable for gsce
Hi,
Can you please tell me the frequency you 're-revised a topic like was it every week/month?
Thanks
Depends on the topic! Definitely focus on the topics you find more difficult
@@HarrySurplus Thanks for your reply. Can you remember the frequency you re-revised triginometry?
I got a grade 5 GSCE and my teachers have told me I cant do A level maths, and advised me to take gsce higher paper, or should i just pick another A level subject, Please help
Hello! It's hard to give you an answer as I'm not 100% sure on your situation, but like I mentioned in the video most colleges/sixth forms require a grade 6 or above to do a level maths. If you're wanting to do a maths or maths related degree at university then do speak to your teachers again to see what you can do, because you will need a level maths for a maths or maths related degree. However, if you're your not thinking of that then maybe do have a look at other a levels you can take and which will suit you! Hope that helps 😌
