Introduction

The intention of this site is to provide what assistance it can to VCE students of Physics and to some extent those students doing Systems Engineering, Software Development, Extended Investigation and the GAT.  In broad terms Physics and Software Development are subdivided and share pages whereas Systems Engineering has its own space.


Past Examinations

Access to Physics 3/4 examination papers and examiner's reviews.  VCE-Circus has reviewed and notated some past papers and reviewed some aspects of the examiner's reviews.


Primers

Physics primers, concise summaries of particular topics in PDF format.  It includes the popular Pseudo Code Primer.


Exercises, Question Sheets

VCE-Circus sheets have questions similar to examination paper questions.  However, the sheets are not practice examinations, though they would make good preparation for practice examinations.  The page includes (for those during Software Development) InterFace, a ShortStory.


Investigations, School Assessed Tasks

Several units have the requirement that a student (or a small team of students) work on some form of investigation project.  The investigation page contains suggestions for possible projects.  It also contains some discussion on Extended Investigation topics.


GAT

It's not straightforward to comprehensively figure out details of the GAT examination and the consequence of obtaining, or not, a good mark.
