I also thought that paper was difficult. Hopefully boundaries will go down as they went down last year, and last years paper was much easier than the one today. I also have a copy of the paper I can post later if anyone would like it?

Decent paper imo, though I'll probably still get a B because of my awful assignment. Can anybody explain how they scale the marks in the paper with the assignment?

Could you post the paper, it would be a great help

I found the paper to be surprisingly good. I am worried they might increase the boundaries.

With the mark I get... I think they will bring the grade boundaries down by at least 3%

Im signing off now so just to say good luck tomorrow,
Someone please upload quality images of paper if you can (after the exam concludes- ask the invigilator)

remember - relationship formulae- substitution- work out- answer correct number of sig. figs and SI units.

It would be nice if some of you would spend some time learning to use

Latex

scripting here (TSR [url="https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/help/latex"]link

Hey man, I remember you posted the paper solutions after the Higher Physics exam last year, good to see you back!

Any chance you could please post some solutions for todays AH exam if you have some time to spare 😆

(User above has posted the question paper)

Thanks in advance

Thought it was harder than 2017, 100% sure grade boundaries will be down or the same as 2017. Btw did anyone get 0.088m for the distance between the two positively charged spheres and 15600V for the potential at P?

Completely left that question out, couldn’t get it at all

Is that the full paper mate? I don't see the first open ended question on apparent brightness and stars ?

Yep I got 0.088m but totally forgot about what I got for potential, I didn't really know how to do that question lol- I spent 15mins on the first bit cuz my calc was in radians...
