Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced Subsidiary GCE in Physics

UPDATED 20151006 11:35:39

The topics covered in AS Physics are Mechanics, Electrical circuits, Materials, and Waves and Particle Nature of Light. Physics is probably the most versatile, useful A level there is. It will be accepted for virtually any degree, is required for many, and a good physics grade is a badge of academic excellence that any University will take notice of. For any course at University with a slightly scientific focus, physics will either be essential or very highly desirable. As well as the obvious route of physics and all the aspects from quantum physics to cosmology that physics covers, it is a must for courses in engineering and very strongly recommended for courses such as medicine. A physics degree is a ticket into a huge range of careers. As well as academic careers, physicists are in demand pretty much everywhere. A physics graduate has been taught how to think - how to model and understand complicated systems and processes, how to deal with and interpret data and, in general, how to understand how things work. There is a huge demand for physicists in the City and the financial sector as a whole, and physicists are instrumental in several aspects of healthcare, but any organisation that has anything complicated going on would love to have a physicist to work things out for them!
