Physics Examination Board: AQA A-level Physics is a stepping stone to further study of a science-based subject at university. It is an extremely versatile qualification and is essential for Electronics, Engineering and pure Sciences, and very useful for auxiliary Science-based subjects, such as Medicine. The intellectual training that one gets studying Physics, such as the use of applied mathematics and logical reasoning, as well as the scientific approach to problem-solving, can be considered useful for any profession. We follow the AQA Physics Specification 7408.
