Isaac physics senior physics challenge

Hey guys,
I am trying to do a lot of isaac physics questions for the SPC and I was wondering how do isaac physics actually select their candidates? Obviously i know that you have to do a lot of questions but I saw on the website about some kind of test you have to take where you send in worked solutions. Does anyone know more about this? How hard is this test exactly?

Thanks

Hey, I am also working on isaac rn. I don't think there is an additional test as the only thing in the student selection criteria is:

if you are still unsure, send an email to the isaac team on 'contact us' in the website. they usually reply within a couple of days.

best of luck with your preparation

for some reason the image failed to send, here is a quote from the website: Accordingly, when selecting students for places we will be considering their activity in:

physics and maths problem solving questions, i.e. questions labelled with C1-C3 at A-level or beyond.


I take it as they won't have additional testing (but best to ask the isaac team for confirmation) :wink:
