The Exams are optional exams for students applying for an undergraduate degree scheme at Aberystwyth.

All candidates for the Mathematics and Further Mathematics exam will be asked to answer on paper, scanned and emailed to scholarships@aber.ac.uk by your Exams Officer. 

You will sit TWO exams from the choice of subjects we offer (the choice of exam papers must be approved by the Department you have applied to study at).

Each exam lasts for an hour and a half and both exams need to be taken on the same day.

The exams are set and marked by our academic departments so they don’t follow any particular syllabus but they should be a similar standard to A-level exams. We do not offer marking schemes or feedback for exam papers.
