As being physics teacher for the past 27 years, My students from Brampton Manor have found the paper straightforward and didn't have any issues with storming through the questions. I feel like the grade boundaries should be high this year.

With Regards,

Yep- OCR B. Probably the worst A level physics course of the bunch imo.

I do OCR B how did you find Paper 1?

I haven’t actually seen the paper 1 from this year- I sat A level physics last year.

Last year’s paper 1 was pretty bad imo, but from what I’ve gathered, this year’s paper was waaay worse.

Yeah I heard last years was bad too but hopefully when they release the prospective boundaries we will be able to see if we can rest easy or panic.

Oh right I see. Yeah OCR B I can't find anyone who actually does it lmao. But it was awful some rough questions worded so strangely. Time management was awful. Multiple choice had questions that easily deserved like 3 marks. The paper Deffo had the upper hand for people who took maths

It made me want to just go up there and get rid of the sun.

Does anyone remember the answers? I got the age of the sun if it was shrinking of to the power of 7 which resulted in the earth already outlining the sun.... and solar mass was like 8.4 to the power of negative something percent that had been burned through fission

You defo heard correctly- though last year, the only thing worse than the questions in the papers was the proofreading lol (even the erratum notice on the paper 3 had a mistake on it).

I’d say it’s a little premature to panic- virtually everyone thinks this paper was shite so it’ll quite probably bring down the grade boundaries substantially and you also have two more papers to go, which means plenty of opportunities to score marks.

I did and I think I did horrendously. I had to keep leaving questions half done so I could move on to see if I could pick up more marks on other ones. Not great. Going to have to get some good marks on p2 so I can offset my probable grade E from p1.
