Book Description

Collins CSEC® Physics provides a new approach to the study of the CSEC® Physics
syllabus that focuses on the skills needed to pass and to get a top grade. It provides
full coverage of the CXC® syllabus.
• Written in clear, accessible language, with worked examples and annotated
diagrams and illustrations to help explain difficult concepts
• Practice and exam-style questions focus on the key skills needed for the exam:
Recalling facts questions allow students to demonstrate what they have learned
Applying facts questions allow students to link what they have learned to
real-life examples and contexts
Analysing data questions – invaluable for the SBA lab work in physics and
essential for a top grade – allow students to demonstrate that they can think
critically about data, analyse the information it gives, and reach sensible and
logical conclusions based on that data
