DD1 is in Yr 11 and currently doing further maths. The class is taught at lunch time and lasts 45 minutes. They have a new history teacher this year who is, reading between the lines, a bit shocked by how little was covered in Yr 10. She is a very engaged teacher who is doing everything to help them catch up - including running an extra class on the same lunch time that DD has further maths. This class is compulsory for some students but not DD but everyone is encouraged to attend. DD will not be doing a maths A level (will be doing Biology, Chemistry and Geography if that helps ). She wants advice - she seems to think that having further maths will give her more UCAS points? She also wonders if it would look good on Uni applications or whether she would be better focusing on getting the best grade possible in History? I honestly have no idea so would appreciate any insight anyone could provide. Thank you.
