Hi everyone,
I am a A level Mathematics and Further Mathematics student in my first year of A Level (Year 12). I want to keep doing mathematics at a university level and get a PhD in mathematics, eventually becoming a professor/mathematician.
I wanted to do an EPQ on mathematics because I simply am not interested in anything else but I really want to do one.
My original idea was to write about 5 different mathematicians (1000 words each) that influenced mathematics greatly, but since we are not allowed to talk about topics we learn at school in our EPQs, I had to dismiss that idea. My teacher then told me that I should do one maths-/physics related, and she told me that an EPQ on black holes might be a good idea. However, I am still unsure in case that there are possible EPQ ideas. I would be very grateful if anyone could help/guide me towards the right direction (keeping in mind that the topic cannot be similar to a topic that is taught at school)?
P.S. my mathematics board is Edexcel.
