He said "competing against" not "breezing past". :tongue:

Well if any of you are applying to New College/St Hilda's I feel pretty clued up about their Physics Interview questions! I don't mind sharing them! :smile:

You can't say Edexcel P1 is easy without a comparison. The hardest quesitons you're gonna get are ones like:

find the area of the region bounded by the equation y=x^3 and y=3x
sin(2x+1).tan(2x+1)=3, find x in the range 0<x<360

Now they're very hard if you're comparing with the Edexcel P1 average but they're easily do-able. M1 is a bit tougher in general but personally I find it simple because you can use drawings to help unlike most of the pure.

I was comparing OCR P1 to AQA B P1.

Edexcel has always had a rep for quite tough maths modules.

1.) Invasion of another country and braking Geneva conventions - Illegal.
2.) I would have not gone to war, simple.

Hi, noticed that several other subjects seem to be starting their own "group" and including it in their signatures, so I thought I'd start one for people studying Physics at Uni, or planning too - UK Learning Physics Society. If you'd like to become a member, please reply and you can add the listing to your signature.

Physicists that I'm currently aware of:
*Hoofbeat (me!)
*Nylex
*Mik1a (ur planning to do it)
*Elpaw (although he seems to have dissappeared)
*Bezza

I know there are many more, particularly a few ppl I've spoken to on the Oxbridge Forum! So If you want to become a member then post your reply!

I wouldn't mind being a member..... :smile:

Awww, well I think that's good enough! Engineering is basically applied Physics! Feel welcome to join and add it to your signature :smile:

Aww, thanks, that's really nice of you! Sorry, I am VERY behind with this thread now...

Enginineering is applied physics, but physics is applied maths. Enginieering is physics, except more applied than most types. :biggrin:

i wouldnt say physics is applied maths. you use a lot of maths in physics, but physics is more about understanding where the maths came from and what the results mean. (remember, physics has only been using maths from the times of newton, before that it still existed (albeit in a week sense) in a domain outside maths)
