Fundamentally this topic is still the same as it was at Level 2:
- using differentiation methods to find the gradient at a points on the curve and interpreting this in context
- using differentiation methods to find the gradient at a points on the curve and interpreting this in context
- using differentiation to describe the rates that variables are changing with respect to others
- using differentiation to describe the rates that variables are changing with respect to others
-using differentiation methods to find the equations of tangents and normals to curves

The only main difference is that the types of functions you will be differentiating are more varied than last year!

Level 2 Differentiation Application Questions
Level 2 Differentiation Application Questions
Open this doc in a new window to practice the types of questions you will see at Level 3 but with Level 2 functions.
Over the course of this year you will learn to answer similar questions to these but with harder functions!

Key Problem sets - do these question sets when you think you are confident about a section, if you get them all right you can be confident you have mastered this to the right level!
