Best Physics Exams

Hey guys,

I have been doing a few practice exams for Physics and I'll be very blunt, they seem very ... odd (Odd = Layout is terrible and the wording of questions are odd), when compared to actual VCAA exams. I'll be honest and say that even when doing these practice exams, I don't feel they're helping much. D:

Also, I have been hearing that the solutions for some exams are wrong...  :'(

Would anyone here have any recommendations on which Physics exams are .... 'good'?

(Good = VCAA Like or Solutions are Correct etc....)

(Praying LovePhysics doesn't post .... ;D )

Thanks!

I liked STAV too. It's best to keep a variety going, rather than sticking to just 3 companies.

That said, probably avoid TSFX if you can help it. Definitely avoid all the random small companies: AEA, FSG etc. A good measure to go by is by formatting actually. I propose that in general: the dodgier the formatting, the dodgier the exam.

iTute isn't VCAA like, but I still enjoyed that. The questions weren't overly off the course, but they were dodgy in a somewhat good sense.

Mr. Study, what exams have you been doing recently?

Laseredd, FSG is actually quite good! I like them!

Un-called for.
