Course summary

Physics is the very general study of the Universe, and the matter and interactions within, and aims to provide the most fundamental explanations possible. It encompasses scales from the smallest subatomic particle physics to the grandest cosmological questions. Studying Physics at A-level will help you to start to think and reason like a physicist. You will understand and deploy a wider range of Physics models than at IGCSE, and you will see and exploit the power of mathematical formulations. A-level Physics is challenging, but rewarding: the thinking and reasoning skills developed are highly valued and widely transferable across a huge range of university courses.

Entry requirements

It is fair to say that Physics at A-level is considerably more mathematical in content than Physics at IGCSE, so boys who choose it ought to be good at, and enjoy, maths. Studying A-level Physics without the invaluable support of A-level Mathematics is diffi cult and not recommended.
