Edexcel International AS Mathematics
Edexcel international A-level mathematics is a modular programme leading to six possible qualifications.
- IAS - Mathematics
- IAS - Further mathematics
- IAS - Pure mathematics
- A-level - Mathematics
- A-level - Further mathematics
- A-level - Pure mathematics
There are 14 units to choice from (12 for AS) but note that a unit can only be used once to claim a qualification.
We offer courses in each of the units individually so you have maximum flexibility.
An AS qualification requires 3 units (see below for options)
An A-level qualification requires 6 units
| Qualification | Compulsory Units | Optional Units |
|---|---|---|
| AS Mathematics | P1, P2, | M1, S1, D1 |
| AS Further Mathematics | FP1 | FP2, FP3, M1, M2, M3, S1, S2, S3, D1 |
| AS Pure Mathematics | P1, P2, FP1 |
