Further maths and physics (A levels)

[Eleyne]

DS has maths, further mathematics, and physics as his subjects for A levels.
We are hoping to get a lot of revision done over the Christmas break to catch up on everything they have learnt at school until now.
Are there any online resources where we can find practice questions?
It's something we want to start doing on a daily basis, but need to get into that pattern during the holidays.
It was be really helpful if there was something similar for physics as well. But I suppose that is simpler, as he can revise from his text books and notes.

@larkstar thank you for taking the time to write such a long response. They all sound like exceptional students. It’s true that the years at university can be turbulent for other reasons than the course.
Are you still teaching now?

My son uses Dr Frost for Maths/Further Maths. He has access to this via his school

@Eleyne
Some degree apprenticeships are good but they choose the university. It might not be the course he wants. Or where he wants to go. Nor the subject matter. If it’s a big company, grads from top universities will be recruited whilst Dc is still in the middle of his part time degree. I really would weigh up the differences and career development for grads and apprentices. Graduates from top universities might well do better. But there’s a cost to that in terms of fees and grad tax.

@purplemagnolias my DS does further maths as a 3rd A Level. He wasn't given the option to do it as a 4th and needed it to follow on to study engineering. In our experience at a regular state school my DS was not allowed to do a 4th subject as you are offered at some state, grammar and private schools. Anyway, he has offers from Bath etc for engineering despite not studying 4 A Levels. He didn't apply to Imperial as we live nearby so I don't know if they would have offered on 3 A levels.

My son started off doing 4 A levels- Maths, Further Maths, physics and computer science. He dropped computer science at end of year 12. He is now at university studying maths and he got 5 offers from Warwick, Nottingham, Manchester, Birmingham and Aston.
