Revision

You do not need to use every resource here. Start with the topics that still feel weak, mark your work carefully, and keep returning to the areas that need another pass.

Build a revision routine

• Set up a revision timetable or use the revision tracker.
• Organise notes, checklists, and question sets before each session.
• Revise in short focused blocks and revisit topics regularly.
• Say ideas out loud, teach someone else, or rewrite summaries from memory.
• Spend most of your time on the topics you currently find difficult.

Exam technique

• Use a clear time strategy in multiple-choice papers.
• If you are unsure, move on and come back after securing easier marks.
• Write down working where it helps you check or eliminate answers.
• Write definitions in words rather than symbols.
• Check units and use precise physics vocabulary in every answer.

Practical and planning questions

• Include units for all numerical answers.
• Use sensible significant figures based on the data or instruments.
• Label graph axes with quantity and unit, and use a sensible scale.
• Support conclusions with results rather than vague statements.
• When suggesting improvements, explain how the change improves accuracy or reliability.
• For planning questions, give actual values, repeat readings, and state the graph clearly.

The source document also pointed students back to the textbook: make notes, highlight key content, summarise each section, then try the chapter questions before checking the mark schemes.

The original PDF included specific mock resources from 2025. Use these as extra practice rather than as a guide to a current paper.

The mock topics listed in the document were:

• Practical skills from Year 9 to Year 11
• Measurement techniques and motion
• Forces, moments, and vectors
• Momentum, work, energy, and power
• Waves and light
• Static electricity and DC circuits
• Electromagnetism

The document also stated that these topics were not on that 2025 mock:

• Kinetic theory and thermal physics
• Nuclear and atomic physics
• Space
