Are you interested in how the universe works? Physics is the basis of our understanding of the universe and can reveal the fundamental physical processes within it. If you have an enquiring mind with good mathematical skills then physics will provide you with a basis for further study and employment in many modern technological and engineering-based subjects. Nine modules are studied. 1. Measurements and their errors 2. Particles and radiation 3. Waves 4. Mechanics and materials 5. Electricity 6. Further mechanics and thermal physics 7. Fields and their consequences 8. Nuclear physics 9. Turning Points in Physics
You need a minimum of 5 GCSEs at grade 4 or higher, including a grade 6 or above in GCSE Science or Physics and grade 6 in Mathematics. It is also preferable to study mathematics at A level or the Core Maths qualification.
Paper 1: 120 min written exam (34% of A level) Paper 2: 120 min written exam (34% of A level) Paper 3: 120 min written exam (32% of A level)
