To self-assess your performance, use this question paper alongside the corresponding mark scheme (June-2016-MS---Paper-2-Edexcel-Physics-AS-level). Attempt the entire paper under timed conditions before opening the mark scheme — this trains both your subject knowledge and exam technique. Mark each question and record whether marks were lost due to knowledge gaps, method errors, or careless mistakes.

The most effective way to use this Physics question paper is to simulate real exam conditions: set a timer for the full duration, work without notes, and write your answers on separate paper. After finishing, mark yourself using the official mark scheme — do not check answers during the paper. This builds exam stamina and reveals your genuine readiness. Repeat this process across 3–5 sessions to identify recurring weak topics in Physics.

Omitting or forgetting units on final numerical answers

In some calculation questions the final mark was not awarded due to a missing unit. This seemed to be more prevalent in this years' examination.9PH0 Paper 3, June 2023

How to fix: After every calculation, check: magnitude written? unit written? For SI-prefixed answers, write the unit explicitly (e.g. 2.4 × 10⁻³ kg, not just 2.4 × 10⁻³). Note that 'show that' questions are the only exceptions where final units are not penalised — on all other calculation questions a missing unit costs the answer mark.
