Hey guys does any of you happen to know where can I find TSA Cambridge past papers? I have only found one in the admissions testing service and after googling past papers I couldn't find any more than these paper. Thanks

The Other Place have papers that are identical in style and you get a score conversion key too

Just ignore Section 2

Sorry for answering so late, I just sent off the completed form 😆 Hmmm I'm applying to the course for the Physics, and I chose topics mainly related to the curriculum I'm covering in Advanced/Higher level (Scottish qualifications... I'm mexican btw 🙃).

So for the first topic I put astrophysics: star formation, black holes, dark energy, methods of detection of exoplanets, etc. For the second I just wrote "the general contradiction that results when comparing classical physics and quantum theory". And for the third, I just wrote basic chemistry principles and that I would also be comfortable talking about biological topics like evolution, genetics and general cell biology. Idk whether my choices are too broad or too specific but that's what came into my mind xD

It's alright, I decided in the end :biggrin:

I put organic synthesis (the production of azo dyes specifically), my EPQ on forensic chemistry and using calculus to find the rate constant. Hopefully they're not to broad :smile:

I don't think there is a *right* answer.
The order of operations is a convention we use and either way is acceptable because that question is ambiguous.

I remember watching a video on a similar topic, I'll post it if I remember where

If you use PEDMAS/BODMAS then you get 24 if that's what you were arguing about

edit: just realised some people were taught that's it's PEMDAS which just illustrates my point...
