A* in further mathsI know questions like this are asked pretty frequently but i just wanted to know specifically.
If I have D1- 93, S2- 96, FP1- 97, M2- 100, FP2- 90 what do I need in FP3 tomorrow, for an A*.
More specifically, will S2, M2 and FP2 count as my A2 modules meaning I only need 4 in FP3 for an A*, or will FP3 have to go towards the A*, meaning I need 80?
Thanks in advance! -

Re: A* in further mathsAny "A2" units (units which have any number other than 1 in them which aren't core units) can count towards further maths A2. You are also required to put 1 of FP2 and FP3 into further maths a level, either AS or A2, so long story short yes, S2, M2 and FP2 can be your units in the further maths A2(Original post by thomas93)

Re: A* in further maths80 in FP3 isn't necessary for an A*, as you've already achieved a 90% average across three A2 units. You only need 4UMS in FP3 now to maintain an 80% overall average and hence get an A*.

Re: A* in further mathsNo. Any A2 unit counts, which (with Edexcel) are FP2-3, M2-5, S2-4, D2.(Original post by Miryo)
Guys, do you have to include FP2 in the 3 subjects to average over 90? -

Re: A* in further mathsFunnily enough I can work out the averages. I was clarify on which modules I can use to contribute.(Original post by Storme)
you're hoping to get an A* in further maths and you can't do a simple year 7 averages question?
