The physics exam is on Thursday 25th April 2024
Resources
BEAR WITH ME AS I AM TRYING TO CHANGE THE LOOK OF THE PAGE. I’LL TRY TO RECOVER THE DETAILS ASAP. FOR NOW IF LIKE ME YOU CAN’T FIND ANYTHING, USE THE SEARCH
https://www.mrsphysics.co.uk/higher/revision-materials-for-the-cfe-higher-physics-course/
- Go to MENU on your phone
- Click on the COURSE MATERIALS (with the picture shown)
- or from a computer click on COURSE MATERIALS
- Navigate down until you come to the UNIT you want
- Some materials are in the REVISION section
- Most of the information is in the relevant TOPIC, enjoy!
It’s not going to be easy, but it’s going to be worth it.
Introduction to Higher Physics
Some advice!
- Analyse your work and identify Areas for Improvement
- Use past papers along with the SQA website – use “marking instructions”, your teacher will show you how.
- Attend after-school Supported Study regularly.
- Consult teachers at interval/lunchtime, perhaps to get help with homework or to borrow other resources.
- Refer to compendium document.
- Practice with “Basic Knowledge” or Tutorial Question.
- Make/obtain and use Flash Cards.
- Try mind-mapping/spider diagrams.
- Generate your own short notes/ summaries
- Familiarise with the equations on page 2, stick a copy in your jotter and add your own notes to these.
- Create and learn mnemonics (ROYGBIV – Richard of York Gave Battle in Vain, RMIVUXG but don’t overdo it)
- Plan weekly Revision timetable.
- Write and record mp3 files.
- Use Flash Learning , Scholar, Glesga Physics or other software
- Useful websites and departmental website.
- Post-it notes in your room/house (better ask first!)
- Remember to revise at the first opportunity after any lesson, asking yourself;
- What were the main learning objectives of the lesson?
- Do I understand these?
- What can I do to improve?
- 1 mark for the formula
- 1 mark for substitution
- 1 mark for the correct answer with the correct unit.
Thank you, this website was very helpful throughout my NAT 5 and will be using this resource all the way through my higher physics course.
Delighted you find it useful A. Hope there is plenty for you in the Higher course. Let me know if anything is missing, although I can’t see I will get the Learning outcomes done just yet.
This is that same student 9 months later and I am pleased to say that I got an A! Thank you, the resources you provided were massively beneficial and saved me a lot of stress. Now looking forward to Advanced Higher 🙂
Congratulations Scottish Student on your fab results. I hope that you enjoy AH, it is a great course. Let me know what you’ll be doing for your project!
