Preparing for Oxford Physics: this course is run by the Department of Physics for students applying to Oxford Physics and is aimed at young people in Year 12 or equivalent. The course consists of webinars, problem sets, emails and videos and is entirely online. The course content is available to everyone who registers for the course, regardless of location or background. However, in the event of webinars being oversubscribed, we may prioritise young people at UK state schools for those events.

The Isaac Science website contains lots of maths and physics problem-solving questions. The following resources are particularly useful: Mastering essential pre-university physics. Select your own questions within the A-level resources section: select ‘Problem solving’ and click on physics or maths and the level of question you want. Remember to register/log in so the website records your progress. University preparation also contains lots of questions which are suitable as university entrance preparation.

The British Physics Olympiad website contains lots of past papers and solutions of problem-solving type questions. You can find questions and answers in the Past Papers section. You might want to look at the following papers; Senior Physics Challenge (set in Y12) and Physics Challenge (set early in Y13). Choose questions that you find interesting or want some practise with.

Physics Lab's 'next time' website contains questions designed to make you think about physical concepts. They are often multiple choice or yes/no questions, and there is usually not much maths involved. The original idea was that the teacher would ask the question at the end of a lesson and answer it 'next time'. Questions are grouped into topics, and each question has a title that is a link to a pdf that includes the question on one page and the solution on a second. This can be useful for checking your understanding of general concepts.

I want to study engineering website is just as useful for all applicants not just those applying to engineering. On the first page there is a choice of level of question; you should be looking at the 'mathematics and physics questions at the level of university engineering admissions interviews' for university interview practice. This section then has an index of problems, divided into smaller groups of about 10-20 questions by topic. Each question has a multiple-choice answer, plus hints for a solution strategy and summaries of relevant bits of theory. There is also a (usually concise and mathematical) solution, plus short videos to help with understanding.
