In A level Physics, we start with the fundamental concepts and theories learnt in the lower school, and build and expand upon them, using some sophisticated mathematical ideas to support them and eventually reaching a stage where we can start to look at some of the concepts baffling scientists in our present day such as quantum theory, particle physics and cosmology.
An A level Physics student is expected to have a minimum of a grade 7 in IGCSE Physics or a 7 grade equivalent in the Physics component of IGCSE Double Award Science. We also recommend that you have at least a 7 in IGCSE mathematics to support your studies. Students who have struggled to master GCSE Physics or Maths will find A level very difficult – to access B grades and above at A level we expect minimum grade 8s in Physics and Maths.
