Isaac Physics Yr12 Day (Vectors)

Event details

Are you...

• aiming for A* to B grade in A-Level Physics and Maths?
• hoping to study Physics, Engineering or Maths at a top university?
• keen to improve your problem solving skills?
• want to find out more about further education and STEM careers?

Aims

This free workshop aims to develop each student's confidence and problem solving skills in a core area of physics by tackling a range of examples from idealised problems through to real-world situations. Students will be guided through the problem solving process, and will solve a range of unusual problems with help and guidance.

During the day, there will also be an admissions talk from the University of Oxford Physics Department and a sample university lecture.

Refreshments during the day are provided but lunch is not provided, so please bring a packed lunch. There may be a travel grant available should this otherwise be a barrier to a student attending the workshop. Please contact us individually if this is required.

Target Audience

End-of-AS-Level students, who are aiming to achieve A* to B grades in both Physics and Maths A-Level.
