Me too but realistically you can’t get like high markers out of it can you?

Particles is at the top of the list so in theory it should be but I think they'll probably be lots of short markers instead of longer ones

That would be nice, I do aqa for a diff subject and they stuck to the advance info perfectly but then again it’s not a science subject so we’ll have to see, good luck tho👍

Like Fluffybuns said, maybe not long questions but it is the topic with the most allotted marks. Maybe they would do two sets of long/short-answer questions with fewer marks each?

Got a feeling the mechanics and Forces question will be about upthrust. Haven’t seen a single question about it, but it still is in AQA books.

What pages in the textbook is this??

Low-key have a feeling they will integrate some waves into the long answer questions. Reckon questions will very broad regarding content :/

It should be in forces and momentum. But same rules apply so don’t worry. Instead of air resistance or friction, you have drag.

are you allowed to use shorthand symbols/words in answers eg the three dots for therefore and eqb for equilibrium

Not sure I might just have to write out the long word 😩

you can for chemistry so i’m guessing same for physics ? if you’re using a shorthand it’s usually best to write out the symbol and label what it means and then use the shorthand just in case the examiner didn’t know
