About these OCR A-Level Physics A papers
OCR A-Level Physics A is specifications H156, H556. This page links 45 question papers (45 with mark schemes) across 9 exam series, from June 2017 to June 2025. In the June 2025 series, the 5 papers were:
- H556/01 Modelling physics (A-level)
- H556/02 Exploring physics (A-level)
- H556/03 Unified physics (A-level)
- H156/01 Breadth in physics (AS)
- H156/02 Depth in physics (AS)
Sit each paper under timed conditions, then mark it against the official mark scheme. To turn a raw mark into a grade, use OCR grade boundaries for the same series, because boundaries change every year. OCR's examiner reports for each series explain where candidates most often lost marks.
