math edexcel

hi
i have complex questions about math edexcel .
first if i have taken math a level along with fp1

fp1 will not count as anything not even transfer credit in university ?

if i have taken math a level along with fp1 fp2 ?? still nothing ??

and fp2 fp2 d2 ?? that will not count further math as qualification ??

can i take 3 a levels from edexcel?

and which is more prestigious ??

further math a level or math a level ( PURE ) ??

u can answer to any of the question :biggrin:

A single extra unit counts for nothing in UK, it is not a qualification.

still nothing in UK though it would show a uni that you have knowledge/ability/interest beyond standard A level so they may be positive about that.

3 eligible units that = an AS in further maths

Yes if you take all 18 units.

Maths A level (Pure) = 1 A level C1-C1 + FP1/FP2 - 6 units
To get a full Further Maths A level you also must complete a Maths A level = 12 units in all. 2 A levels would be more impressive than one - though in UK only if you were applying for very mathematical courses e.g. Maths/Engineering/Economics courses where futher maths is required/recommended/advantageous.
