AQA A Level Physics 7408 — AS + A2 structure

Assessment and Qualifications Alliance (AQA) · qualification code 7408 · Linear specification

AS Level (Year 12)

AQA A Level Mathematics (7357) is a linear specification — there is no standalone AS qualification examined in modular form. Students study AS content (Pure + applied) in Year 12, but exams are sat only at the end of Year 13.

Full A Level (Year 13)

Three papers at the end of Year 13: Paper 1 (Pure, 100 marks, 2 hours), Paper 2 (Pure + Mechanics, 100 marks), Paper 3 (Pure + Statistics, 100 marks). Pure content makes up two-thirds of the qualification.

Exam series

Single exam series in summer of Year 13 (typically May/June). No January re-sits — the linear reform means students sit all three papers in a single sitting. Re-sit option exists only as a full re-take the following year.

Grade boundaries

Grade A* typically requires around 80% overall (varies per series). AQA publishes grade boundaries on Results Day in August.

Content we cover one-to-one

  • Pure — proof, algebra & functions, coordinate geometry, sequences & series, trigonometry, exponentials & logarithms
  • Pure — differentiation, integration, numerical methods, vectors
  • Mechanics — quantities, kinematics, forces & Newton's laws, moments
  • Statistics — sampling, data presentation & interpretation, probability, statistical distributions, hypothesis testing
  • Large Data Set — AQA-specified real-world dataset for the statistics paper

Where A Level Physics leads

  • UK Russell Group universities — A Level Maths is required or strongly preferred for Engineering, Maths, Physics, Economics, CS
  • Oxbridge applications — TMUA / MAT / STEP preparation alongside A Level Maths
  • Apprenticeship and degree-apprenticeship routes
  • International universities accepting UK A Levels
