G.C.E. A-Level Special Paper (S-Paper)

The A-Level Special Paper (nicknamed the Scholarship Paper) is meant for students with a strong foundation in both physics and mathematics, plus superb analytical abilities.

Students should aim for a distinction in this paper if they hope to get a scholarship, as competition is very keen nowadays and it no longer suffices just to get straight A's for the normal A-level papers.

Catering to this special group of students, Mr. Phang has written a T.Y.S. model answers for the "A" Level Physics Special Paper titled: Challenging Physics - 'A' Level Topic-by-Topic Worked Solutions.

The book is available at Popular Bookstores. Its front cover is inserted below, for reference.  Click here for Popular branches and their Contact Numbers

The Special Paper is a very good training ground for the development a rock-solid foundation in Physics.  The questions go deep to the root of the concepts.

The technique and thinking process behind Special Paper problems are illustrated in the following sample questions.
