Examiner-informed workshops. Not more content — exam mastery.
If you are sitting AQA A Level Further Mathematics 7367 -- typically alongside AQA Mathematics 7357 -- this page covers every paper, current grade thresholds, and exactly how our workshops are mapped to your specification.
7367 students are typically the strongest mathematicians in their cohort -- yet the step up in abstraction and the choice of optional papers means many still lose marks on:
Core Pure questions on complex numbers and matrices require answers in specific forms (modulus-argument form, simplified matrix entries) -- a correct result presented in the wrong form can lose the final accuracy mark.
AQA Core Pure proofs (induction, contradiction) follow strict structural conventions -- under exam time pressure, students often compress steps the mark scheme requires to see explicitly, even when the underlying logic is correct.
7367 offers three optional paper combinations (Mechanics, Statistics, Discrete) -- students rarely receive guidance on which combination best matches their strengths, and grade boundary patterns differ noticeably between them.
Further Pure vector questions often require both a numerical result and a stated geometric interpretation -- students who give only the calculation, without the interpretation, lose the marks attached to it.
Our workshops are built from these patterns — not from the textbook.
Every workshop follows the same structure: the examiner's pattern for that paper is deconstructed first (Anatomy), then solved live with the mark scheme revealed at each stage (Drill), then you attempt it yourself with peer comparison (Close), then your own questions are answered (Open Forum). 87% of students report that seeing a peer's different approach revealed a method they had never considered.
AQA 7367 consists of two compulsory Core Pure papers plus two papers from one optional area (Mechanics, Statistics, or Discrete Mathematics) -- 300 marks total. Our workshops are scheduled per paper, not per topic, so you train for the exam you will actually sit.
| Paper | Title | Duration | Marks | Weighting | Key Topics |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CP1 | Core Pure Mathematics 1 Compulsory | 1h 30m | 75 | 25% | Complex numbers, matrices, further algebra, proof, series, vectors |
| CP2 | Core Pure Mathematics 2 Compulsory | 1h 30m | 75 | 25% | Complex numbers, further calculus, differential equations, polar coordinates, hyperbolic functions |
| FM | Further Mechanics Optional area | 1h 30m | 75 | 25% | Momentum, work/energy, elastic collisions, circular motion, simple harmonic motion |
| FS | Further Statistics Optional area | 1h 30m | 75 | 25% | Discrete distributions, chi-squared tests, correlation, combinations of random variables |
Grade boundaries are set after marking based on cohort performance and paper difficulty, and vary by optional paper combination. The table below shows the official threshold for the SM (Statistics & Mechanics) combination, 300 marks total.
| Session | A* | A | B | C | D | E |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Jun 2025 (SM combination) | 241 | 199 | 165 | 132 | 99 | 66 |
Out of 300 (SM -- Statistics & Mechanics optional combination). Source: AQA published subject grade boundaries, June 2025 (code 7367SM). Boundaries vary by optional paper combination (DS, MD, SM) -- always verify your combination at aqa.org.uk, as boundaries change every session.
An A* for the SM combination in June 2025 required 241/300 -- approximately 80% of available marks. Different optional combinations produce different boundaries -- confirm yours with us before targeting a specific mark.
Mark schemes attach specific meaning to command words. Misreading one of these costs marks the student's working had already earned.
| Command Word | What It Demands | Common Student Error | Workshop Fix |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hence | Use the result from the previous part directly -- an independent method, even if correct, is not credited for a "Hence" instruction | Solving a "Hence" part using a fresh, independent method that doesn't use the earlier result, scoring zero for that step | Drill phase: "Hence" chaining exercises across Core Pure past questions |
| Prove | A complete, structurally correct argument -- for induction, explicit base case, inductive hypothesis, inductive step and conclusion, each clearly labelled | Compressing or omitting structural steps (especially the conclusion) under time pressure, even when the mathematics is correct | Anatomy phase: induction proofs deconstructed line-by-line against what AQA Core Pure mark schemes require to see |
| Interpret geometrically | State what a calculated vector or complex number result represents geometrically (e.g. perpendicularity, locus, transformation), not just the calculation | Giving the correct numerical result without the geometric interpretation the mark scheme requires as a separate mark | Close phase: peer comparison of vector answers shows which students state the interpretation automatically vs as an afterthought |
| Find the exact value | Present the answer in exact form (surds, fractions, multiples of π) -- a correct decimal approximation does not earn the mark | Giving a correct decimal value when an exact form was required, especially under time pressure on Core Pure papers | Open Forum: rapid drills on converting calculator output to exact form before writing the final answer |
Facilitation is led by team members who have sat this exact specification — not generic A Level tutors working from a textbook.
"AQA Further Maths students are usually fluent in the mathematics long before they walk into the exam. What I teach is how to write that fluency down in the form AQA rewards."
