Effective revision for AQA A-Level Physics requires a clear understanding of the specification structure, which topics appear on which papers, the most commonly examined areas, and how topics link together. This lesson provides a complete specification map, a detailed overview of the most popular option (Astrophysics), the full list of equations to memorise, and a structured revision strategy.
The AQA A-Level Physics specification (7408) is organised into sections 3.1 to 3.12. Here is the complete map:
| Section | Topic | Key subtopics |
|---|---|---|
| 3.1 | Measurements and their errors | SI units, estimation, uncertainties, significant figures |
| 3.2 | Particles and radiation | Atomic structure, Standard Model, photoelectric effect, energy levels, wave-particle duality |
| 3.3 | Waves | Progressive and stationary waves, refraction, diffraction, interference, polarisation |
| 3.4 | Mechanics and materials | SUVAT, forces, Newton's laws, momentum, energy, work, power, materials, Young modulus |
| 3.5 | Electricity | Charge, current, pd, resistance, Ohm's law, resistivity, circuits, EMF, internal resistance, potential dividers |
