This question doesn't make sense.
If you pass Further Maths, you would only get one A Level, irrespective of which modules you choose.
If you resit the A Level with different modules and pass, you will only get the one A Level in Further Maths

I think the question was referring to the old modular system, wherein it was possible to get an Additional Further Maths A-Level by sitting all 18 modules, which, although rare, was definitely an option. The question does make sense and is very reasonable knowing this was the option in the past.

The answer to the original query is unfortunately not anymore. Whilst it is still possible to enter for as many modules as you'd like, you would still get the same amount of credit, they'd just choose your best ones.

What I meant is in the old syllabus I could have made up more than one A Level in Further Maths due to the modules being modular. For example I could have studied for an A Level in Further Pure Maths and then made up another AS or A Level in Applied Further Maths. I just wandered if I could undertake this under the newer 2017 syllabus?

Yes, I was referring to the older A Level in Further Maths syllabus in terms that achieving more than one A Level in Further Maths was possible. But I wandered if this was possible under the new A Level in Further Maths syllabus. However you’ve stated that it’s not possible anymore. That’s all I wanted to know.

Thanks V much.
