Maths and Further Maths modules

Is it possible to do FP1, FP2 and S2 this year for FM AS seen as FP2 is an A2 module and I haven't done S1 yet.
Altogether for FM, can I do 4 A2 modules and 2 AS modules or does it have to be 3 and 3?

Reiterating the idea of the replacement of S1 with M1...

Maths : C1, C2, C3, C4, D1, M1

Further Maths: FP1, FP2, FP3, S1, S2, S3

And that would be ok?

Also, which out of those 3 modules for Further Maths I listed do I need 90%+ for the A*?

I'm sure that is OK but you still need to seek permission from Edexcel.

Best three of FP2, FP3, S2 and S3.

I wouldn't need permission off Edexcel if I am doing...

C1-4, M1 and D1 on AQA.

And on Edexcel I'll do FP1-3, S1-3.

I would only need to tell my teacher that I'm not doing S1 on Edexcel.

Ah f**k.

So what do you think I should do?

Cus I have no idea...

You can do the thing you just proposed - you just need to keep Edexcel informed and get permission from your school.

You haven't actually taken any exams yet so I would be tempted to write off the FP1 exam fee and just do everything with AQA. If your tutor isn't up to the job, get another one or teach yourself. I would recommend the Further Maths Support Group but they will steer you towards OCR MEI and you will still face the same set of complications.

I don't think I'd want to cancel the Edexcel FP1 Exam because then I'd have to do 3 FM modules in June... which would be a pain and it took hard work to actually book the exam in the first place; costing £165 and a whole load of phone calls.

To try and conclude... (sorry for the reppitition)

C1, C2, C3, C4, D1, M1 on AQA

FP1, FP2, FP3, S1, S2, S3 on Edexcel

And that phone call to Edexcel to see if they'd award me the qualification.

?

On a weirdly unrelated note, I heard on the grape vine that it's actually possible to do FP1 instead of C4 for maths, is there any truth in that whatsoever? I didn't think so.....

£165? Why? The unit price for a module exam is £14.80 - are you including the cost of your private tuition in your figure?

Edexcel will be fine about that. You don't need to contact them - your exams officer should do it.

Erm... I kinda left booking the exam quite late... yeh...., no I'm not including the price of my tuition.

Sorry but I think you have been badly ripped off. High late entries cost three times the normal price.

But the school does not do FM so, presumably they are charging for an invigilator and/or similar

Ah f**k.

So what do you think I should do?
