About OCR A-Level Physics
Two OCR routes, different papers
| Course | Code | Written papers |
|---|---|---|
| Physics A | H556 | Modelling: 2h 15m; Exploring: 2h 15m; Unified: 1h 30m |
| Physics B, Advancing Physics | H557 | Fundamentals: 2h 15m; Scientific literacy: 2h 15m; Practical skills: 1h 30m |
A reliable starting process
Represent
Sketch the situation
Show the important forces, circuit elements or wave features. Identify the quantities you know and the one you need.
Reason
Choose a relationship
Explain why a principle applies. Keep units visible and state assumptions such as negligible resistance where appropriate.
Review
Check the result
Consider its size, sign and units. Ask whether the answer fits the physical situation.
Practical understanding belongs throughout the course
Both routes include written practical questions and a separately reported practical endorsement. Tuition can develop interpretation of graphs, uncertainty and experimental methods. Your school or centre organises the practical endorsement.
Frequently asked questions
Can a tutor teach both OCR routes?
Some may, but check. The same exam durations do not mean the same papers or teaching approach. Share H556 or H557 and your current topics.
Can we focus on scientific explanations?
Yes. Practise linking a cause to its effect using the relevant physics. Compare a vague statement with an explanation that identifies the mechanism.
How can I start?
Bring a question and your working to a free 15-minute introduction. Discuss what made it difficult and the kind of feedback you find useful.
