The first aim of the course is to consolidate and extend the theoretical and technical knowledge acquired to varying degrees depending on the options chosen in secondary education. It then provides essential supplements for future users of mathematics, thus preparing them for studies in later years. The aim is not just to acquire the tools. It also aims to develop a critical mind and a way of approaching problems with rigour and precision.
- Provide the essential tools for the rest of the course.
- Develop rigour and precision.
- Develop the ability to think critically.
After a review of fundamental concepts, the main chapters in the theory of functions of one variable are reviewed: elementary functions, limits, continuity, asymptotes, derivation and associated theorems, variation of functions and construction of their graphs, study of extrema, logarithmic and exponential functions, primitives and integrals.
Written examination in two parts: one, lasting approximately 45 minutes, covers the theory and is designed to assess both understanding and memorization; the other, lasting approximately 2 hours 15 minutes, is mainly concerned with solving exercises and various applications.
