This qualification is invaluable for entry to higher education courses in Engineering, Physical Sciences and Medical Physics, and it is highly desirable for Computing and Architecture. Studying Physics leads to a wide variety of rewarding careers, including roles such as physical scientist, researcher and electronics engineer. Many physicists also combine their work with the other sciences (Chemistry and Biology) to study things like meteorology (the atmosphere) and geophysics (the structure of the earth). Learners will study a variety of topics including: • Measurements and their errors • Particles and radiation • Waves • Mechanics and materials • Electricity • Further mechanics and thermal physics • Fields and their consequences • Nuclear physics • One option to be studied from: Astrophysics, Medical Physics, Engineering Physics, Turning points in physics or Electronics.
Grade 7-7 in Combined Science. Grade 7 in Physics (Separate Science). We would strongly advise that you do not take Physics as your only Science. Students are more like to succeed on this course when it is taken with at least one of Biology, Chemistry or Maths.
The qualification is linear. Students will sit their exams at the end of their A level course. Paper 1- Topics 1 to 6. Written exam: 2 hours- 85 marks-34% of AS Level Questions -60 marks of short and long answer questions and 25 multiple choice questions on content. Paper 2 - Questions on topics 6 to 8 written exam: 2 hours- 85 marks- 34% of AS Level. Questions - 60 marks of short and long answer questions and 2S multiple choice questions on content. Paper 3- Section A Compulsory section: Practical skills and data analysis. Section B: Questions on the chosen topic written exam: 2 hours- 80 marks-32% of A-level.
