CSET 123: Physics

You can find detailed information here about Subtest 3: Official CSET Science.

This test consists of the following subsections:

Physics:
  • Motion and Forces
  • Conservation of Energy and Momentum
  • Heat and Thermodynamics
  • Waves
  • Electromagnetism
  • Quantum Mechanics and the Standard Model of Particles
Each of these bullet pointed subsections will eventually have a page of its own that will be linked from here. 

A note about the question types: There are 50 Multiple Choice questions, and 3 constructed response questions. The CSET guide is not specific about their distribution for the Subtest 3 exams.
Multiple Choice - This is exactly what it sounds like. You have a question, and four possible answers. You choose which one you think is right.
Constructed Response - In science, this is often a prompt that asks you to create a thoroughly labeled diagram or a description of a process (or both). Check out the practice tests on the CSET website if you want to more.
