Complete Guide: H1 Leaving Cert Physics

This guide aims to replace a revision course for Physics at Higher Level.

We know how hard it can be, and it is our passion to make it easier for the students who come after us. Our team, composed of people who got 625+ points, distilled our own best notes, past paper answers and tips on each part of the course – so that you don’t have to fight these battles on your own or reinvent the wheel. Whether you want 625 points, or to simply maximise your points, this will – guaranteed – have useful insights to make your life easier.
