For those of you doing A level Maths (main exam boards)..

check out http://www.examsolutions.net/

Free videos covering pretty much all topics including mechanics and stats, across the main exam boards.

Many of the questions that are regularly posted here could be figured out by yourself if you had a look at these videos.

Back when I was doing A levels, I only discovered this website a few days before my exams and I wished I had found it earlier, it's fantastic. It wasn't complete then, but I believe it is now.

It's a very helpful and popular resource, I'm sure most people know about it, but thank you for posting about it anyway, if it helps just one person, it'll be worth it.

It's not quite complete, there's M3, FP2 and FP3 (as far as I know, for Edexcel) that's still not quite complete. I'm self teaching Maths and Further Maths and that site has been a gold mine over the past few months.

Can only endorse the site!

I did A levels five years ago, back when I used this site even AQA wasn't finished. I didn't even know M3 existed.

Why are you self teaching if you don't mind me asking?

But they need to add D1

Pah, rubbish module.

I hate it. It shouldn't be regarded as maths....

I don't think it is by any sane person.

Hmmm, I got 98 in it, so can't complain. I saw it as a module where you basically have to be a slow computer

Congrats!

That's the main beef people have with it, I think, you get treated like a slow computer. xD

Same could be said for most mathematical topics.

I was thinking that over as I wrote it. A-Level maths is all about calculus and co-ordinate geometry and parametric equations, etc... things that computers can do in a seconds. Maths is all about proofs and is much more indepth than that, I completely agree.

I prefer to see it as a useful language we can use to solve real life problems such as those in physics and engineering. Any branch of maths that has no real life application, or no intention to be used in that manner, I do not care about.

This is what A levels are designed to do. They introduce you to maths that is generally useful in real life applications; calculus, trig, mechanics etc.

I'd rather be doing M1 right now

There was once a time when number theory was thought to be a pure branch of mathematics reserved for academics cut off from reality, and yet today it's the basis of all of cryptography and encryption and what makes using the internet possible. I wouldn't be so eager to disregard fields of maths that seemingly have no applications because they will emerge, sooner or later.

Although there's nothing wrong with pursuing a field for the sake of pursuing the field itself. Real life applications isn't always the be all and end all.

You really wouldn't.

On topic, yes that is a great site.
