I'm doing OCR. Not sure what's in fp2, defiantly polar coordinates and some differentiation and integration but much more in depth... Think differential equations are in fp3
Don't know much about what textbooks they use... It's just a professor at Bath said that there's a physics community/group that make sure all universities teach the necessary subjects professional physicists need.
Yeah, teaching material is all the same and I'd assume all of the top 15-20 have good lecturers. Guess it depends on your preference and how you like to learn...
I've done a bit of polar coordinates for FP2 and we've started C3 in school but I'll probably do some over the summer. And yeah I've had a look at the admission tests for Oxford. The maths part looks pretty straight forward but the physics questions at the end can be tricky... I'm not really...
Hopefully As in maths, f.maths and physics and a B in chemistry (which I'm dropping). I think I could maybe get an A* in maths just have to boss C3 and C4... Think you have to get over 80 UMS in each unit as well, not sure though.
I don't know depends on my AS results really. I think I did well but you never know until results day. I'd like to go to a top uni like oxford, Cambridge and imperial but lack the self-belief:L I just think I'll get rejected... Hopefully a good university though; I've had a look at Bath and am...
They do a bit of the photoelectric effect and E=hf but that's about it. Do you know of any lectures online that I can use to learn more advanced classical mechanics?
I'm 17 years old and plan to study theoretical physics at university. I want to try and learn a bit of quantum physics just because it interests me; got to spend the summer doing something! Sadly I only have a AS level understanding (including FP1) of maths so can anyone recommend any resources...
