Physics 1 & Physics 2
National algebra-based courses — broader coverage, more writing and design prompts than Physics C.
Section I
50 multiple-choice · 1 hour 30 minutes
Section II
5 free-response · 1 hour 30 minutes (includes experimental design)
On the exam
- FRQs often ask for paragraph reasoning, quantitative justification, and experiment critique — not plug-and-chug only.
- Science Practices (modelling, data, argument) are examined explicitly alongside content objectives.
- Physics 2 adds fluids, thermodynamics, optics, and modern topics at greater depth than Physics 1.
With us: We match practice to the exact course you sit, with FRQ templates and design questions so exam-day stems feel familiar.
