A Level Mathematics for AQA Student Book 1 (AS/Year 1)
New 2017 Cambridge A Level Maths and Further Maths resources help students with learning and revision.
Written for the AQA AS/A Level Mathematics specifications for first teaching from 2017, this print Student Book covers the content for AS and the first year of A Level. It balances accessible exposition with a wealth of worked examples, exercises and opportunities to test and consolidate learning, providing a clear and structured pathway for progressing through the course. It is underpinned by a strong pedagogical approach, with an emphasis on skills development and the synoptic nature of the course. Includes answers to aid independent study. This book is AQA approved
