Level 3 Mathematics with Statistics
13MAS Course DescriptionTeacher in Charge: Mr M. Barr.
Recommended Prior LearningStudents who take 13MAS should have passed the Year 12 Algebra and Probability external achievement standards.
AS 91261 Apply algebraic methods in solving problems
AS 91267 Apply probability methods in solving problems
Students who do not reach Achieved in the Probability paper in the practice exams will be removed from this course. They may be allowed to enter at the start of the next year if their external results are sufficiently high, but this will require the approval of the Head of Faculty, Mathematics.
Mathematics with Statistics centres on the further development of statistics, with supporting material in algebra, computational mathematics and simple ideas of modelling. The emphasis is on practical and numerical work.
