Cambridge Pre U
This section contains suggestions for material from the
schoolphysics website that could be used with the Cambridge Pre-U Physics syllabus (for
first examination in 2010).
CIE is not affiliated with the author of the site and has
had no involvement with the content of this website.
The website does not
necessarily cover all topics or cover any topic to the depth required for this syllabus, although
some sections may cover topics in more detail than is needed.
It is the responsibility of
the individual teacher to select the appropriate material.
References to work at
GCSE level that might be useful at Pre-U level are shown as (14-16) or (11-14).
