Did anyone do their AQA GCSEs Physics exam?

Question

I did it this afternoon and found it quite hard - some of it was alright...

How did everyone else find it?

Answer 1

shyeh physics was hard..it started off quite easy, but then got really hard, it was gettin to the point where i felt like giving up...i really hope the grade boundaries are low...but on the plus side, that was my last GCSE exam....wooohooo

PS: good luck to those who still have exams :-)

Answer 2

I found it quite easy apart from some random questions which are more on opinions than knowledge

I should still get around 90%-95% though.

Luckily for others the grade boundaries are extremely low. For JAN 08 an A*was about 65%

Answer 3

I did and yes... it was harsh.  :D  I thought Chem would be the hardest but compared to Physics it was p**s easy! Was it unit 3 you did?

Answer 4

Yep me me me pick me. Sorry.

I did it i thought in comparison to chemistry it was easier and the first biology but i retook biology and it went well.

I think it was a good exam but the live wire one was a bit confusing i didn't know what they were asking. Now im thinking to take physics instead of bio/chem for A level.

What fished me of though was the fact that i memorised soooooooooo many formulas and they GAVE them to us anyway.You're lucky if it was ur last exam i still hve Geo-2hrs and french reading(dunno how long). Oh yeah and Grd 5 theory on Saturday...jst wen i thought it was all over.

Answer 5

Aww i think i did bad in it, i didnt like it at all =(

Answer 6

It was incredibly difficult lol

We have never done anything about oscilloscopes, and when it asked you to work out the frequency I actually checked the front of my paper to make sure I didn't have the separate science one. How can that be fair??? It's not even in the revision guide.

I'm not great at physics anyway but at least if they tested me on stuff we'd done I'd stand some sort of chance!

There were 4 or 5 marks for that question as well, and that's like the difference between a D and a C. =(

I hope they adjust the grade boundaries because otherwise I'm in trouble lol.

Answer 7

i did that and i loved that test! the hard questions were the one about with the oscilloscope and the last question about the toy! the rest of the test was fun! i think the hardest one was biology!
