Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About

SACE Physics

While it is not a compulsory prerequisite at all schools, SACE Specialist Mathematics is strongly recommended. The advanced mathematical skills developed in Specialist Maths provide a significant advantage in understanding and solving complex Physics problems.
SACE Physics is usually assessed through two main components: 30% of the grade comes from school-based assessments (Folio), and the remaining 70% is from the final external examination.
The “Folio” is a collection of students’ work completed during the year. It must include at least two Practical Investigations and one Science as a Human Endeavour (SHE) investigation.
Our teachers will guide you in selecting a relevant current issue, exploring its connection to physics concepts, and structuring an engaging report that analyzes the interaction between science and society in line with SACE requirements.
Yes. As part of the internationally recognized SACE qualification, SACE Physics demonstrates high-level scientific competence and is well regarded by universities worldwide, particularly for STEM-related courses.
The tuition fee for SACE Physics at Intertu Education depends on the selected study hour package and level of support service (Standard, Premium, Platinum), tailored to best meet each student’s specific needs and learning goals.
