A level maths in one year?

I have looked around several internet pages and asked different search engines this exact question, but i havent had straight answers. Is it possible to do an A level in maths in one year, and if so, where and how can I do it?

If you take further maths, then you do 6 units in your first year, so you end up with a full A-Level after your AS year.

It is indeed possible to do A level maths in one year, I am currently (the last few exams are this week) doing the further maths A level in one year. If you are planning to do it with a college or sixth form they may try to discourage you or say no depending on your history but you can always register to do the exams yourself.

I have done my AS year at sixth form, but after looking at different university websites, I need maths to do the degree I want to do, so I'l be doing maths in year 13. So can I still do exactly what you have said, but just in year 13?

How are you doing your maths work? Did you buy a textbook, or have tutoring? Also, when it comes to exams, how are you sitting them?

I learnt the whole A-level syllabus for Edexcel in maths in one year and managed to get an A. I didn't have any teachers and self taught so it is very possible. All you need is the textbooks released by Edexcel (if you're planning on using Edexcel) and learn from the book (I heard from some of my friends, the book is even better than the teacher ). Then come two/three weeks before the exams, start doing every single past paper there is and make sure you understand and get it all correct.

No bragging rights but I managed to get over 90% in C1, C2, C3 and over 80% in C4, M1 and S1 using the above method.

The hard part I think is finding somewhere to sit the exams if you self teach and don't go to college.

Hope this helps.

This is exactly what I want to do!! Did you have to buy the textbooks? and where/how did you sit your exams? I suppose some negotiation with the headteacher shall be possible, but I dont think my school will let me, so I have to go to another school to do the exams

You weren't far off an A* then, unlucky.

I did manage to pull of an A* but I thought I would just say an A haha. I manage to get 95% in C3 and 88% in C4 so that is over 90% in the A2 modules which awards you with an A*

You can pick and choose which fm units you do. You have to do fp1 and either fp2 or fp3 (or both). You then have to make up the rest of the units from mechanics or stats or decision maths. It doesnt matter how many of each you do.
