Physics is an exciting and relevant subject, fascinating to study for its own sake, but also leading on to many careers from engineering and communications to medicine and cutting edge research. Physics is thought of as the most fundamental science, but not all scientists end up working in a laboratory: volcanologists, seismologists, structural and civil engineers, architects, nuclear scientists, pilots and astronauts… all started by studying Physics at A Level.
Three formal exams – Two covering course content (37% each) and a Synoptic paper (26%) that uses content from different topics to test candidates’ problem solving skills.
