This lesson gives you a complete overview of the AQA GCSE Mathematics specification, including topic weightings, higher-tier-only content, high-frequency topics, the formula sheet, and a comprehensive revision checklist. Use this as your master revision planning tool in the weeks leading up to the exam.
The AQA GCSE Mathematics specification (8300) is divided into six content areas. All six are tested across all three papers — there is no "algebra paper" or "geometry paper".
| Content Area | Topics Covered | Approximate Weighting |
|---|---|---|
| Number | Integers, decimals, fractions, percentages, powers, roots, standard form, bounds | ~15% |
| Algebra | Expressions, equations, inequalities, sequences, graphs, functions, proof | ~30% |
| Ratio, Proportion and Rates of Change | Ratio, direct/inverse proportion, percentages, compound measures, growth/decay | ~20% |
| Geometry and Measures | Properties of shapes, angles, transformations, constructions, Pythagoras, trigonometry, vectors | ~20% |
| Statistics | Data collection, charts, averages, spread, cumulative frequency, box plots | ~15% |
| Probability | Basic probability, combined events, tree diagrams, conditional probability | (Included in Statistics weighting) |
