What are the ISA topics for Additional Further Science?

Hey :/
I have a new physics teacher:frown:
Half of my year (including me) are doing GCSE Further Additional Science (Unit 3) and the other half are doing GCSE Additional Science (Unit 2). We are both being taught the same topic for our ISA by this teacher (Light dependant resistors). Is this correct?
The topic we are being taught is not in the Unit 3 specification but it is in the Unit 2. We have done ISAs previously to this and we feel now we are studying the wrong topic and wasting time. Furthermore, this teacher has not taught ISAs before.

Does anyone know the topics for the GCSE Further Additonal Science ISA?!:s-smilie:
For my Further Additional Science ISA it was on refraction and the refractive index, but if you're really worried you should go speak to the head of science! :smile: hope it all works out ok!

Thanks I'll do that :smile:

you have an ISA for each unit of work. You might do the Unit 3 one at a later date.
These are the ones we have been told.

You may be doing them for practice.

I doubt it, he would have told us if it was a practice and we have done ISAs before
Are those ones you sent the AQA ones?
