It depends if you're good with maths and problem solving.

A little lateral thinking is required with trick questions..above all pay attention and do all the work.

If you can do that, not too difficult.

VCE Physics is a conceptual based subject, and involves applying concepts to applications. This subject is different from other subjects in a way that understanding concepts is key in order to master the subject. Therefore, the teaching style heavily influences the students' understanding of the subject. Without the proper teaching methods, students will be learning the material the wrong way and therefore find the subject hard.

It is very conceptual, so basically, learn the concepts properly (e.g.: Newton's 3 Laws) and just do a LOT and LOT and LOT of questions!

This way, you will be able to do any question an exam throws at you as you will realise that there are only so many ways that a question about a concept can be asked. The math involved isn't hard.

So yeah, not a very difficult subject if you are a good conceptual learner.
