Im hoping the 6 marker will be particles, but as that came up last year i'm thinking it will be on electricity. I tend to struggle on the 6 markers on electricity, does anyone have tips or some model answers I can look at? thanks

I am sure you know some of this anyway but...
I would advise to answer in bullet points ( as I do ) and it helps you to stop repeaating yourself...
Also make sure you know how to do experiments involving resistance.... and think of different 6 markers on different circuits.
By the way I did the EMPA for this and they mentioned a traveling microscope, of which I didn't know about but the questions about it were not to bad. However I do think it would be a good idea to look at the spec and see what you could ask.
I thought it would be worth mentioning I am putting up a youtube video which covers all of the spec ( as in going from the spec requirements.... so kind of skim through the key points on what they could ask you )
That's because the value is in MeV (notice the M), which is x10^6 (Million). To go from eV to Joules you multiply it by 1.6x10^-19, but to go from MeV to Joules you must factor in the million multiplication and take it away giving you 1.6x10^-13 instead.

Could you just go over some key things I need to say for the Circuit 6 markers, im fine on oscilloscopes and anything on the particles.

If you look closely from line one to line two, it went from 1.63x10^-13 to line two 1.63x10^-3, and that's when they take account into the factor of 10^6 of MeV

Lol ok i just realised it was a misprint, in line two they used 10^-3 but in line three they used 10^-13 again

Oh you are correct. That is indeed a mistake. They must have mistyped it.
Though if you are going from eV to Joules it's 1.63x10^-19 and going from MeV to Joules is 1.63x10^-13.

Enjoy ... and good luck for everyone
please let us know when you have uploaded the video going though the specification points.
