i love maths and its one of the only subjects i like, but i messed around in y11 and got kicked off the further maths gcse. i think im going to get an 8 in maths gcse. would i find further maths too hard? id hate to take it and find it too hard and make me lose interest in maths. my school says u need a 7 to do it but my college im going to says 8. thanks

haha thats great, did it help in your career because right now all i have thought about is accountancy
Of those taking Engineering Science (including joint degrees) at Oxford, ~4 (of an intake of ~100) didn't have FM, so, yes. At that time, the number one career for Oxford Engineers was Accountancy. I went into computing.
that was just an idea i dont really have anything set in stone yet. thanks for the idea though ill have a look what the a level is like
From what I have seen, the only A level they really want is Maths. E.g my friend managed to get an offer from Southampton uni for Accounting with Maths, Chemistry and comp sci. Maths, Further Maths and religious studies will probably get you an offer, but who knows, if you are interested in Acounting, then you might also be interested in economics.
Further maths A-Level is generally for people who want to go into a maths career or degree, so unless you're planning on doing that, I personally wouldn't recommend it.

yeah i do. and i enjoy it so i think that helps. why wouldnt u recommend? because of how hard or the workload or something else?

I'm just finishing year 12 this summer, so I can't really tell you from an academic perspective or whatever. I wanted to take FM because I love M and I'm pretty good at it, but my parents (teachers) and my brother and sister all told me that people don't usually take FM unless they plan to do something maths oriented in the future. My sister did FM A-Level and she dropped it after AS because she just didn't need it.
