What you study is not purely theoretical or abstract; it can be applied on a day-to-day basis in work, study or life and most courses will include a financial maths element. It will also help with other A Level subjects – in particular Science, Geography, Business Studies, Psychology and Economics.


Entry requirements? 

Specific entry requirements: Grade 4 in Maths.
