Here are my exam hacks to help you succeed in Physics Exams in A Level Physics and similar courses such as AP Physics, IB physics and equivalents.
These are very important for revision.
Some of the examples of papers that I have solved are from OCR Physics A:
www.ocr.org.uk... Please note that I am not affiliated with the exam board and any advice and solutions are just my own.
This video is applicable to all exam boards including AQA Physics, OCR A and B, Edexcel CIE Cambridge International, Eduqas, etc.
Hope this is helpful!
What are some other tips to add? Let's do a very useful list - I'll start - know that error bars' length are twice the absolute uncertainty. Line of worst of fit can be drawn from the bottom of bottom error bar to the top of the top.
One that I have found helpful, is to leave a question that you are stuck on and come back to it once you are done with the rest of the questions. It not only saves time and prevents frustration but can also give you new insights to approach the problem :)
@@shmkrar1153 agreed!
If you don’t know how to answer or approach a written question look back to the context of the question.
Take time to plan out how you will answer written questions to make sure it’s concise and easy to read.
You will not get mark for simply writing the equation for Faraday’s law, you have to define it in words most of the time.
yes!!
hi, just found your channel a couple weeks before my exams. i love the way you explain things, this is really going to be a life saver. thank you sooo much :))
welcome aboard and thanks for the kind comment! Good luck with the prep!
Wish I had found your channel wayy earlier this year. Thank you. You are saving lives
Thanks a lot! Much appreciated!
I have an exam in a week and this video can really save me. Thank you
any time! You got this, good luck!
A level?
Gcses for me
@arigoloco my GCSE Playlist might be useful for you: ua-cam.com/play/PLYwNW8Dp_cOizH9dwTyKHFDDvfJojdk5c.html good luck!
Final tip is so true 😭
Can you another past paper walk though? That was a very useful video
God bless you for making these videos and the effort you put into them :DD I have my paper in a couple days thanks a bunch
thank you so much for the comment!
write down the quantities you have on the side and then write the quantity they ask you to find with a question mark then you can look at the formula sheet and try use the known quantities to find the unknown by rearranging formulas etc!
excellent
My exam is day after tomorrow. Just found this gem . Wishing I pass with flying colors . Thank you so much
Welcome aboard and thank you for the kind comment! Good luck on the exam!!
ah yes same its tomorrow so scared
good luck, you got this! : )
@@zhelyo_physics when I see formulas and past papers (which I have not solved or solved months ago ) I feels like I dont know anything Im blank because of anxiety and even In exam hall I get panic attacks so end up not getting desired grade:(
Hi ZPhysics, big fan of your channel! I just wanted to request if you could please make a video on AQA Turning Points in Physics or just on the Paper 3 (Practical skills) paper in general. Thank you very much and keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for the kind comment! Absolutely, will be out soon! : )
Do you have any tips on remembering the thermal physics equations, i always get mixed up between Charles Boyles and pressure Law
For this one... start with pV=nRT, say T=const (Boyle's Law) then pv=const, i.e. p1V1=p2V2 , if the pressure is const (Charle's law) then V/T=nR/p but nR/p is a const so V/T=const etc. That really works!
Please make aqa past paper solutions walkthrough videos
also how are you able to apply concepts to application questions I tend to lose marks on those often, thanks again sir!
the more of them you do, probably the more you will get used to what tends to appear in mark schemes. Good luck!
Very good video . Sir I am a physics student . I am trying hard for exams but still got very less improvement due to unable to complete question in time can you suggest any tips to solve problem in minimum time..
Good question! Hard to give a definite answer as every question paper is different and people's strengths and areas of improvements are different. What works for me is to practice under timed conditions and experiment, if you find yourself spending more than 10 minutes a problem, it's probably beneficial to move on. Good luck, you got this!
@@zhelyo_physics tq sir
I was wondering where the 1hour multiple choice questions video went? Thanks
Hi, I recently understood that CIE is not happy to have their papers online and several physics channels have been issued takedown requests so I took it down as a precaution even though it was my own solutions and I have not received anything. Sorry about that, will do a similar one soon!
@@zhelyo_physics Thank you!
You posted this right after the IB physics exams :(
Hi! First off I love your channel and I hope you keep growing! Secondly, I always struggle with Wave Theory and for some reason I never get those polarization filter questions correct, is there any way in which I can improve?
Thank you so much for the kind comment! This video might help with polarisation: ua-cam.com/video/wHpem-mVQdI/v-deo.html also the relevant section of the waves experiments here: ua-cam.com/video/DQFoLOYsa1U/v-deo.html Hope this is helpful!
@@zhelyo_physics This helped a lot! Thank you so much :)
1 day before exam, whatching just in case it can help
good luck!
@@zhelyo_physics thank you!
hello, did you post a video of answering a load of multiple choice qs. What happened to it?
hello, I have seen on other physics channels that CIE is not very happy having their questions around so I have just removed it as a precaution even though no one has been in contacted me. I think the issue was with the latest papers only, but not worth risking. Sorry about that!
my issue is I dont understand exactly what the question is asking ? how do I deal with that
I think this might be your answer, at least in some part ua-cam.com/video/uAlw4QyxCp4/v-deo.html + lots of practice
@@zhelyo_physics thanks so much!
Anytime!
Any chance you have a all of turning points option module video coming up?
In the process of filming it this weekend actually, they take a long time to be done well but will be out soon and it will be a real turning point for this channel 😁
@@zhelyo_physics Haha I forgot to read this comment before writing my own - thanks a lot for making this video!
do i use radiants for all question to do with circular motion and oscillations?
Excellent question. It depends on the question, if you have to resolve forces into components etc in circular motion and the angles are given in degrees, you can just use normal degree mode as they are just vectors.
The formula of x=Acos(ωt) and x=Asin(ωt) need to be in radian mode in SHM. Hope this helps!
1:17 Why is it 1 s.f? Isn't the +-100 in the question 3s.f?
trailing zeros are not significant. Hope this helps!
@@zhelyo_physics Oh wow, thanks, I have got it wrong for all this time
Hey bro, I can solve hard questions in exams, but my time management is not that good. So despite having the potential, I get 90, 90+ but don't get 100, can you tell me a way to improve my time management??
100 is very hard! It might depend massively on exactly where the mistakes are, after doing a couple of papers I would look at pricesely where the errors came from and see if you can find a plan to reduce them. I wouldn't worry too much though, 90+ is amazing!! Well done!
How much can you really improve in 2 weeks
Lots! : ) This is the entire course in about 12 hours: ua-cam.com/play/PLSygKZqfTjPC3hJ7nRSnnXTw3tI_o67dR.html Obviously you need to practice lots though : ) You got this! Leave a comment if something doesn't make sense
@@zhelyo_physics is that playlist fine for aqa?
11:53PM…- tryna clutch physics as exam tmrw…gl everyone! 😅
good luck tomorrow!
Shoutout to all the A level physics people here, one day before P4 tomorrow 😅
Good luck! : ) You got this!
X°=1 but why please sir me answer
I have a video about this: ua-cam.com/video/Zf-V58Zwc9Y/v-deo.html Hope this explains it!
@@zhelyo_physics thank you so much sir ✍️👑💪
Okk🎉
Pray for me 😞
Good luck!
