I'd say it's definitely harder than A level C1-C3 and last year's further pure maths was quite tough, but definitely lots of fun and extremely rewarding and made a level maths feel like a joke. If you want to do it don't start any later than now, I started at the start of Year 11 :smile:

Why the hell would you take maths 4 times? And biology and then "human" biology, it sounds like some fake course.
Also business studies with economics is a very soft subject especially once you come to A levels and realise most of it is rubbish.
Omg how did you cope getting those 2A's?
Lol joke,
congratulations on some fantastic scores. You should really be proud of yourself.
Heyy, I'm doing AQA Levels 2 Further Mathematics since I've finished my GCSE in Maths, any advice? We did a mock two days ago and it was basically algebra and proving questions o_o which i struggle in a lot..
With those good grades what do you intend to study at Uni or whatever?

Because the other subjects didn't challenge me and I thought I'd stretch myself. And biology and human biology are separate IGCSEs, human being tougher, you can look it up on edexcel if you want to.

Well in my school 3 people out of about 40 got an A* in Bus/econ

And I found GCSE bus/econ harder than AS econ at the moment by the way

What's the content of GCSE further pure maths? Surely it can't be harder than C3?

I did additional maths in my GCSE years (it's a free standing maths qualification offered by OCR) and that covered material from c1/c2/c3, s1 and m1. But I wouldn't say it was harder than those

The whole point of these qualifications is to provide a stepping stone into A-level, not to surpass them
