International A Level Mathematics Course provides you with a thorough grounding in the mathematical tools and techniques often needed in the workplace. The logic and reasoning skills developed by studying A-level Mathematics make sure the qualification is widely respected even in non-mathematical arenas.
This InternationalA Level Mathematics provides the techniques in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Calculus that form the fundamental building blocks of further study in a variety of subjects including Science and Engineering. You will also find this course extremely valuable if you are looking for a progression route for further training whilst employed.
International A Level Mathematics CIE exams can be taken in June and November (Also March for India).
International A Level Mathematics Edexcel Exams can be taken in January and June (Some units are available in October).

AS Level
The Cambridge International AS Level Mathematics qualification offers three different options:
Pure Mathematics only (Paper 1 and Paper 2) or
Pure Mathematics and Mechanics (Paper 1 and Paper 4) or
Pure Mathematics and Probability & Statistics (Paper 1 and Paper 5)
Please note, the Pure-Mathematics-only option (Paper 1 and Paper 2) leads to an AS Level only and cannot be used as a staged route to a full A Level. Candidates who have taken Paper 1 and Paper 2 at AS Level and then wish to complete a full A Level would need to retake Paper 1 alongside three other components. These should be chosen from the specific combinations below.
Full A’ Level
The Cambridge International A Level Mathematics qualification offers two different options:
Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Probability & Statistics (Papers 1, 3, 4 and 5) or
Pure Mathematics and Probability & Statistics (Papers 1, 3, 5 and 6).
Please note, it is not possible to combine Paper 4 and Paper 6. This is because Paper 6 depends on prior knowledge of the subject content for Paper 5.
