Students will thoroughly revise all Unit 4 Areas of Study under the new study design including; Electric Power; Interactions of Light and Matter; and Detailed Study (Either 'Synchrotron and its Applications', 'Photonics' or 'Sound').
Program Structure:
Our Physics 12 Week Intensive Target Classes are structured into three distinct parts:
Part 1 - Week 1: Held over two days (6 hours in total)
The Advanced Blueprint to VCE Success seminar; designed to develop the skills and strategies necessary for students to become more efficient learners and more focused on achieving their goals.
Part 2 - Weeks 2 to 11: 2 hours per week for 10 weeks (20 hours)
Students will be given a progressive and detailed revision of the subject content. The examinable topics will be addressed systematically and students will complete examination style questions weekly. A week by week description for the Physics Intensive Target Classes is shown below:

Part 3 - Week 12: Trial examination paper under strict examination conditions (2 hours)
Students will complete a trial examination paper under strict examination conditions. Upon completion, the trial examination paper will be assessed and immediate feedback will be given on how scores can be improved.
The Physics trial examination paper is written by senior VCE teachers, published authors, VCE assessors and state reviewers with ample experience in setting and marking VCE examinations.
