What topic areas are covered in the exam?

The content of the exams is separated into three topics:

  1. Using numbers and the number system
  2. Using common measures, shape and space
  3. Handling information and data / statistics

These topics also build on the content in entry level 1, entry level 2 and entry level 3, so it is important for learners to be familiar with this content. Make sure you include all your workings and calculations in your exam as this may allow you to pick up additional marks, if you have shown the required skills for that question.
