Course summary

The A level course in Physics provides the tools needed to explore the universe we live in, from the wonders of the quantum world to the staggering scales of planets and galaxies. Physics will stretch your understanding, put your logic and reasoning skills to the test and will ask you to flex your imaginative muscles to grasp some of the more abstract concepts. It is a combination of theory and investigative practical work that brings Physics into the real world. Physics opens the door to a wide range of opportunities. All Physics university courses (e.g. Astrophysics, Cosmology, Particle Physics, Geophysics, and Theoretical Physics) and almost all engineering degrees will require a good result for A level Physics. University choices do not end there however as a physicist’s ability for logic and reason, has resulted in some universities looking for students with an A level in Physics for Finance, Computing, Business, Economics, Dentistry, Mechatronics, Motorsports and Veterinary Science, to name but a few.
