Summer 2016 Physics exams
The summer 2016 exam series for Physics students will stretch over May and June, a time when sporting distractions can divert attention away from revision. It may be wise to bear these in mind when planning revision sessions, or when helping students plan their revision timetables.
GCE Physics (2008)
| Date | Unit Code | Unit Title |
|---|---|---|
| 24 May a.m. | 6PH01 | Physics Unit 1 |
| 9 June p.m. | 6PH02 | Physics Unit 2 |
| 20 June p.m. | 6PH04 | Physics Unit 4 |
| 28 June a.m. | 6PH05 | Physics Unit 5 |
The summer 2016 series will bring the AS and A2 units to an end, whilst the summer 2017 series will be the last opportunity for A2 resits.
Revision
Revision for the Physics units may be disrupted slightly by the England v Russia game, but there is a nice gap before the next England game, as England v Wales kicks off at 3 p.m.
Revision for Unit 5 should not cause too much disruption either as the England v Slovakia game is on 20 June, kick off 9 p.m.
Revision may also be affected with the Sri Lanka 2016 tour of England.
It is possibly fortunate that the knockout phase of the Euro 2016 finals starts just before the last exam.
Finally, the Wimbledon fortnight does not start until Monday 27 June.
GCE Physics (2015)
| Date | Unit code | Unit title |
|---|---|---|
| 24 May a.m. | 8PH0 01 | Physics Paper 1 |
| 9 June p.m. | 8PH0 02 | Physics Paper 2 |
