Physics General Subject
General Subjects General Subjects General Subjects are suited to students who are interested in pathways beyond senior secondary schooling that lead to tertiary studies. Results in General subjects contribute to the awarded of a QCE and can contribute to an ATAR. Students will need high level underpinning skills in literacy, numeracy and 21stcentury skills to be successful in these subjects. Students must have undertaken Science Extension in year 10 and achieved a grade of B.
Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions Question: Why should I study Physics? Answer: If you are intending on undertaking a highly technical course such as Engineering, Physics is strongly recommended if not a pre- requisite. If you are good at maths and enjoy solving technical problems you may enjoy Physics.
Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions Question: What prerequisites do need to choose Physics? Answer: Students must have undertaken Science Extension in year 10 and achieved a grade of B.
Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions Question: Do I need to do Maths Methods to do Physics? Answer: No, but it would be an advantage as Physics is very mathematical.
Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions Question: What assessment will I need to complete in Physics? Answer: Like all senior sciences you will complete 4 assessment items in year 11 and 4 in year 12. You will complete a Data Test, Student Experiment, Research Task and an Exam that assesses a full year s work. In year 12 the Exam is externally set and contributes 50% of your overall result.
