just got 30/70 on the specimen paper :frown:. Any tips


For them questions you need to think outside the box. On set 2 they have asked questions to do with real life senarios so you probably know how to do the questions you just may not of understood it correctly so I recommend going through the mark scheme and seeing where you went wrong and try figuring out why you went wrong and correcting it.

set 2


I wouldn't worry too much then - those papers were ridiculously difficult and the mark schemes were very harsh. Hopefully we get a nice paper tomorrow.

I'm doing the 4th question rn, and I'm just thinking wtf... I've looked at the mark scheme and I can just see random values and idek how they got there :/ I WAS confident, not too sure now :/
EDIT: I know how they got there now :/ ----> Nope, still lost.

I wouldn't worry too much about those papers. The mark schemes are very strict (as these mark schemes don't go through the standard process of checking) and the papers themselves are ridiculously difficult. Fingers crossed we get a nicer paper tomorrow.

We've only done the required practicals - I don't know if it's any help but AQA has published suggested methods (page 62 to 88) http://filestore.aqa.org.uk/resources/physics/AQA-7407-7408-PHBK.PDF
