Hasn't been made yet so I thought I would make this now for everyone.

For tips on revision for the exam, and also the practicals which I find difficult. Post resources links etc!

Good to hit the ground running!

Its 13 June and its a PM Exam:

Those revision notes from last year are amazing. Thanks for posting them. :smile:
Hi, everyone. I really need some help. I have an assessed practical on Thursday on capacitors. I've missed all the lessons we've had on capacitors as well as the experiments my class has done to prepare us for the assessed one. All I've gathered is that they can explode which has terrified me aha.

I'm really bad at circuits so could anyone tell me the basics of how to connect a capacitor up please. Also which setting do I use the multimeter on for measuring voltage or current because there's always multiple settings on the dial like 1000A, 100A, 1A, AmA, etc. and same for voltage.

I don't want to know anything about the practical if anyone else has done it, just advice in general on capacitor circuits. Thank you so much I really, really appreciate it.

There are past OCR papers called 'Nuclear and Particle Physics', 'Health Physics' and 'Cosmology' that seem to have a lot of questions relevant to the last 3 topics in the G485 exam (i've only flicked through them briefly though) so have a look for those :smile:

Let me know if you need them, i've got quite a few but no idea where on my computer they are so it'll take a bit of hunting around :tongue:

If anyone wants to join me aiming to have all Mod 1 Mod 2 and Mod 3 Questions from the Official Book done (Practice Questions and Exam Style) by Wednesday.

We can work together then check each other if we get stuck?
Hello people! This shall be an interesting exam. There's a lot to cover but with enough time and quality revision we can get the grades we want :smile:

Gonna' make a start on this today and try to cover most of electric and magnetic fields.
