Cambridge O Level Physics (5054) Syllabus
Cambridge, O-level Physics, is an internationally recognized qualification for 14 to 16 years, old students. Cambridge O level Physics amplifies talents of handling data, functional-based problem solving and applying the scientific method in their daily life problems. Cambridge’s principal goal is to encourage the students to be confident, responsible, innovative, engaged, and reflective. The content of Cambridge O-level physics aims to enable the Students to understand applications of scientific theories and knowledge. The Students will study the following topics.
- Forces, motion, and energy
- Thermal Physics
- Waves
- Magnetism and Electricity
- Nuclear Physics
- Space Physics
The students are going to appear in three papers. Learners will get grades A* to F. Paper 1 will be multiple choice paper consist of 40 compulsory MCQs with four options the duration of this paper is 1 hr. Paper 2 will be a Theory paper comprised of compulsory short answers and structured questions. Paper 2 will be of 80 marks and the time allocated is 1 hr 45 min. For Paper 3 and 4, students will have the option to attempt any one paper. Both of them are 40 marks exams. Paper 3 will be the practical test in which students will do an experiment in the laboratory. Paper 4 is Alternative to Practical(ATP). The candidate will not perform practicals; however, there will be experiment-based questions.
