Physics Olympiad

Rising Stars, 6 NatMatSci Year 1 Physicists awarded top Gold Medals at the British Physics Olympiad 2023

Our Year 1 Physicists performed fantastically well in the Senior Physics Challenge competitions, run by the British Physics Olympiad. This paper contains ideas based on Year 1 A level material, but with extremely difficult questions designed to confuse and frustrate the most able students in the country. Every mark is very hard to score.
