FAQs
Should I write my own OCR GCSE Physics revision notes?
Writing your own GCSE Physics notes is a good idea only if you are actively engaging with what you are writing, rather than just copying it out of a textbook. Try to summarise ideas into your own words or create flashcards/quizzes for yourself. This will mean that you are more likely to retain the information.
How long is the OCR GCSE Physics exam?
The OCR Physics A exam consists of two papers for both the Foundation tier (grade 5-1) and the Higher tier (grade 9-4) which are both 1 hour 45 minutes long and each are weighted to 50% of the grade mark. The two papers are split into different topics.
What topics are on the OCR GCSE Physics exam?
Paper 1 of the OCR GCSE Physics A exam consists of topics including Matter, Forces, Electricity, Magnetism and magnetic fields and Practical Skills. Paper 2 consists of topics including Waves in matter, Radioactivity, Energy, Global challenges and Practical skills. It presumes that students have knowledge of the topics in paper 1.
