Although you cannot pass the CHP exam with this class alone, it gives you invaluable tools to set up a regular, focused study program leading to success! The American Board of Health Physics (ABHP) has given approval in the past for EDLL 2005 to provide 32 AAHP continuing education credits.
Student questions will be answered and online support for this course will continue until the CHP exam is administered in July. Approximately 300 hours of study are recommended in order to pass the exam. This class will require a significant time commitment. For late registration, please contact the instructor.
Dr. Johnson's research in the laser research lab is focused on safety and laser injury recovery and the acute effects of ionizing radiation. Dr. Johnson received his Ph.D. in health physics from the School of Health Sciences at Purdue University.
I discovered the site Learnerator several years ago while looking for good AP style questions for my students. I was blown away by the attention to detail in the questions, and how closely they modeled the questions on the AP exam. But then, it went away. Learnerator became Albert.io, and the site moved to a paid model.
First, I do use it as homework. When I assign Albert as homework in AP Physics, I usually assign 20 questions to do over a few days. We go over some of the top missed questions in class before the assignment is due. When I grade the assignment, I either grade it for completion or half completion, half correction.
Second, I use it as supplementary problems. I create optional assignments, or students can work through at their own pace. Sometimes these count as extra credit, sometimes they are purely additional practice.
42.1% of students said they get the most out of review when they do practice problems with a group, and another 31.6% said when they take practice multiple choice (and free response) and make corrections on their answers. Both of these are possible with Albert.io, which is why I think this happened:
Students overwhelmingly selected Albert.io as the most beneficial tool for review we used. Even though they complain about it at times, it really is the best review tool we have at our disposal. The style of questions for AP Physics 1 and 2 are the closest I have seen to the rigor of the AP exam.
To avoid performance crumbles on a physics exam, it is important to start studying early and consistently. Make sure to review all the material, practice solving problems, and seek help from a teacher or tutor if needed. It is also helpful to create a study schedule and stick to it.
One common mistake is not reading the instructions carefully. Make sure to understand what the question is asking before attempting to solve it. Another mistake is not showing all the steps in a problem-solving process. It is important to clearly outline each step to receive full credit.
To avoid performance crumbles, it is important to stay calm during a physics exam. Take deep breaths and focus on the present moment. If you encounter a difficult problem, move on to the next one and come back to it later. Remind yourself that you have studied and are prepared for this exam.
If you come across a question that you don't understand, don't panic. Take a moment to re-read the question and try to break it down into smaller parts. If you are still struggling, make a note to come back to it later. It is better to answer the questions you do understand first and then come back to the more challenging ones.
After the exam, take the time to review your performance and identify any mistakes you made. This will help you understand where you went wrong and how to improve in the future. Look at the solutions and compare them to your own answers. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask your teacher for clarification.
The best way to cram for a physics exam is to focus on the main concepts and formulas that are likely to be on the exam. Review your notes and textbook for key points and practice solving problems. Make sure to also get a good night's sleep and eat a healthy breakfast before the exam.
This depends on your personal learning style. Some people prefer to study alone and focus on their own pace and understanding. Others find it helpful to study with a group and discuss concepts and solve problems together. Try both methods and see which works best for you.
It is important to have a solid understanding of the concepts in physics. However, it is also helpful to have key equations memorized for quicker problem-solving on the exam. Focus on understanding the concepts first and then work on memorizing the equations that are most important.
One way to stay motivated is to set small goals for yourself and reward yourself when you accomplish them. For example, after reviewing a certain number of chapters or solving a certain number of problems, take a short break to do something you enjoy. This can help break up the studying and keep you motivated.
In addition to reviewing key concepts and formulas, make sure to also look over any previous exams or quizzes to see what types of questions may be asked. It can also be helpful to make flashcards or summary sheets to review right before the exam. And don't forget to stay hydrated and take breaks to avoid burnout. Good luck!
Wes Taylor of Cobb County Schools and Becca Howell of Forsyth County Schools provide resources, instructional practices, and guidance to AP Physics 1 teachers as they prepare their students for the AP exam in May. Specific topics include exam basics, what and how to review, and teacher resources.
Test reviews are conducted for several mathematics courses and other courses throughout the term by Academic Resources tutors. The reviews are typically scheduled two nights prior to the examination. Review materials may also be published on the Academic Resources website. To view materials on this page, you must have a PDF viewer such as Adobe Acrobat Reader.
You may pickup a paper copy of an old test for free at the Academic Resources. If we run out of paper copies for a particular test, only then will we post a scanned copy of the old test in the table below. Old exams are available for math classes up to Calc 2.
Both versions include a fair amount of nitty-gritty details that from my experience were simply not on the Core, which really does have largely clinically relevant physics focused on dose, safety, image quality, and image manipulation. Both are definitely more on point than Huda. Conversely, neither resource emphasis the relative dose of various exams (i.e. how many mSv is the effective dose of an average chest CT), which is important material for the Core.
Notorious for being one of the most difficult classes at UF, PHY2053 is sure to challenge you at some point this semester.

Jordan, a National Merit Scholar, has been an aspiring math educator for the last 8 years tutoring privately and at the on campus teaching center, and most recently working as a TA in the math department. As a lifelong mathlete, his proudest moment came when he taught himself differential equations and won the state championship, all while in high school. Now that he's done competing, Jordan takes time off to relax by adventuring, binge watching the latest and greatest TV shows, and studying the art of manliness.
Steven has taught physics labs at the University of Florida and the University of California, Irvine. He also taught AP Physics at Lake Howell High School in Winter Park, Florida, and worked as a neutrino physics researcher at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois. Steven loves road tripping and has driven from Florida to the northern tip of Alaska to New York and back in one trip!
