The Higher Applications of Mathematics course develops, deepens and extends the operational and reasoning skills necessary for solving problems. Through real-life contexts, candidates acquire and apply mathematical and statistical skills directly relevant to life and work, and learn about how mathematics affects the world they live in. Candidates analyse complex real-life problems and gain experience in making and justifying decisions and drawing conclusions.
