Physics develops your problem solving and analytical skills. Physicists investigate topics that range from properties of the most fundamental elementary particles to astrophysical phenomena that may lead to understanding the origin of the universe. Do you want to investigate the limits of space, the beginning of time and everything in between? How about understanding how the technology around you works? Want to save the planet or maybe just help people get better when they are ill? Whatever career you follow, the knowledge and skills you gain by studying Physics will be invaluable. Physics trains your brain to think beyond boundaries.
Students must have GCSE Physics at grade 6 or above and another Science GCSE at grade 6 or above or 2 GCSEs in Combined Science at grade 6 or above (i.e. grade 6 or above in both). Students must also have GCSE Maths at grade 6 or above. All students are required to meet the General Entry Requirement of a minimum of 4 GCSEs at grade 6 with at least GCSE grade 4 in English Language. It is not compulsory to study Maths A Level with Physics A Level, but many students find it beneficial to do so. If you decide to study Maths A Level, we strongly advise that you opt for Maths Mechanics modules.
Written Paper 1 (2 hours, 34%); Written Paper 2 (2 hours, 34%); Written Paper 3 (2 hours, 32%)
