Is Imperial good for physics?

Physics at Imperial covers a broad range of topics in both fundamental and applied physics. This gives you a good grounding in physics, mathematics and experimental methods, and prepares you for advanced study in later years.

Can I study physics at Cambridge?

The Department of Physics in Cambridge offers both three- and four-year courses in physics, which form the two basic routes to a first degree with specialisation in physics. A very wide range of career options are open to graduates from either course.

What is Imperial’s Student-Faculty Ratio? Imperial is a very competitive university with it’s overall acceptance rate being only 15\%.

How hard is Imperial physics?

Compared to A levels there is no question that it’s very hard. Many people don’t need to do work to do well at A level. At Imperial you will need to work for a few hours every weekday to keep up. This surprises many students, and some don’t get it until the 2nd or 3rd years, or not at all (those people do badly).
