    Hi all,

    I am struggling to pass OL maths currently. I have just found out that my course choice allows for a B2 Foundation Level Maths for entry.

    How easy is FL maths conpared to OL, in terms of being able to pass it at B2? Would it be worth doing or would it be best trying to pass OL?

    One of my main struggles in maths is algebra.

    Many thanks.

    It's quite straightforward. Have a look at some papers, but get some preparation for it as they ask a different style of question. Don't just go in and sit the paper.

    Have printed out the 2015 paper from examinations.ie - is it just one paper for FL?

    Yes, just one since last year, but get a couple of older papers too and practice on them.

    Have just done the 2015 paper, found the majority of it fine. Will try the other papers too.

    Many thanks!
