Good level of competency in physics
Physics Placement Test (PPT)
A good level of competency in physics is vital to success in all engineering and science programs.
In line with the top universities in the UAE, ADU's physics placement test will ensure that you are placed in the physics course appropriate to your level during your General Education year. It is proven that students are much more likely to stay motivated if placed at the correct level. Students may fulfill the physics admission requirements through the physics placement test administered by the university if they still need to fulfill it. The exam is a paper-based, face-to-face assessment conducted at the Abu Dhabi and Al Ain campuses. Students get their results the same day or the next day.
You may attempt the exam a maximum of three times.
