I am just curious to see what people think about the difficulty of each of the maths modules and I am interested to see what order other people rank them. This isn't for any specific purpose I just want peoples opinions on the maths modules they are taking. It doesn't need to be both maths and further maths just as many maths modules as you're doing/have done.
Mine is (from easiest to hardest):
C1,
D1,
S1,
M1,
C2,
S2,
FP1,
C3,
C4,
FP4,
FP3,
FP2
Edit: Also write your exam board since they differ. My exam board is AQA.

You are including FP4 which suggests that you are referring to AQA

That's true I forgot to mention that I'll edit it. But yes I am on AQA for all of them.

Difficult to categorise them all. Personally, I found C1-C4, FP1-FP2, M1-M2, S1-S2 and D1-D2 all of a similar difficulty and M3-M5 noticeably more of a challenge (on Edexcel).

I'd somewhat agree with that I think that all the AS modules are all similar in difficulty and all the A2 modules are similar in difficulty but there is a noticable difference between AS and A2. but yeah, I stayed away from mechanics as I'm only doing M1 as i've heard they're very difficult.

I didn't really notice a jump from AS to A2. Lots of people stay away from the mechanics, but for anyone wanting to studying maths/physics/engineering at university they should be a pre-requisite (I knew a fair few people applying for physics/engineering who avoided the mechanics modules, and didn't quite understand the mentality...)

Hmmm.. interesting choices. You find C4 really easy? also I'd why do you think M1 is more difficult than C2?

You're saying that FP2 is of similar difficulty to C1?

No, just that I didn't find it anymore difficult learning FP2 (which would be a year later) than when learning C1.
