Physics

Assessment

There is no coursework in the AQA A Level. However, your performance during practicals will be assessed as described above. There are three exams at the end of the two years for A Level, all of which are two hours long. At least 15% of the marks for A Level Physics are based on what you learned in your practicals. A Level Physics builds on the work done in GCSE Science and Maths, so you should have very good GCSE results from both. Written communication is also important, so you will need to be able to express your ideas clearly and concisely using technical language. \
