Every subject comes with its own level of difficulty at A levels and what will sustain you is your interest. Of course you must be competent in that subject as well to begin with. šŸ™‚

                  She enjoys Maths. During our time, there was Maths and F Maths at A levels. Is there still some F Maths equivalent at A levels now? Sorry, a bit out of touch now.

                      There's H2 and H1 Math. Not sure how that relates to Math and F Math.
