Physics

Entry Requirements

GCSE Grade 8 or above is required in Physics and Mathematics due to the rigours of this course. Separate rather than combined GCSE Physics is highly recommended as a precursor to studying at A Level. In exceptional cases, applicants with a Grade 7 may be considered on the understanding that the course can be challenging for such individuals. At least 40% of the marks in Physics assessments will require using mathematical skills. These skills will be applied in the context of the course and will be at least higher tier GCSE mathematics. It is highly recommended (but not essential) that students take A Level Mathematics alongside physics as a complementary subject.
