Title: CIE further maths
Post by: tmisterr on April 20, 2010, 03:04:18 pm
I wanna do Further maths for CIE but my centre does not offer it sadly, So i will have to do it my self. Has anyone here done/ is doing CIE Further maths? Which textbooks will I need? If i know P1, P2, P3, M1, M2, S1, and S2, will i need to know any other topics that will come outside of these modules? Like i notices on the syllabus for further maths there is Matrices which I haven't seen in the normal maths. Are there any other?

I would advise you not to take further math from CIE, their books are horrible.

It will be hard for me to change bodies for just one examination. How bad is it? and could i use Edexcel books to study further maths for CIE?

EDEXCEL does not even compare to CIE.
