General Mathematics provides for different combinations of student interests and prepares students to study Further Mathematics at a Unit 3 and 4 level. The course is designed for students to gain and demonstrate knowledge and skills that relate to real world applications of mathematics.

Mathematical Methods Units 1 and 2 provide an introductory study of simple elementary functions of a single real variable, algebra, calculus, probability and statistics and their applications in a variety of practical and theoretical contexts.

Specialist Mathematics is only offered in Units 3 & 4 and assumes familiarity with the key knowledge and skills from Mathematical Methods Units 1 and 2 topics 'Number systems and recursion' and 'Geometry in the plane and proof', and concurrent or previous study of Mathematical Methods Units 3 and 4.
