Additional Further Maths. How?

So basically I'm currently doing Maths and Further Maths AS's and intend on studying both at A2. Just this night I've discovered Additional Further Maths! My school doesn't offer anything like this so I was just wondering what it entails.
The units I will end up studying are
C1, C2, C3, C4
FP1, FP2
M1, M2, M3
S1, S2, S3

What else would I need to do to get additional further? Is it every other module including all the decision modules (which my sixth form don't offer) or would it just be maybe M4, S4 and FP3. I would love to hear from anything who is currently doing it. Thanks!

Well I do OCR (MEI) but I'm gonna assume it's the same. Thanks :smile:

If you are just doing the AS, you do any three more modules of your choice. If you do the A2, you need to do all of the modules.
I'm only finishing with 14 modules taken exams in, but am studying more.

similar but not the same

there is no M5 but there is DE, NM, and of couple of others so better options

So I'm guessing I can 'mix and match' a little more with OCR?
