About Brian

Equal first in NSW, and a second pass at the whole course.

In 2021, Brian Kum came equal first in NSW HSC Physics, scoring 99/100.

After graduating from James Ruse Agricultural High School, Brian repeated HSC Physics through TAFE NSW with the goal of improving his understanding, lifting his ATAR, and gaining entry into medicine. His ATAR improved from 99.40 to 99.75, and he is now studying Medicine at the University of Western Australia.

This resource is based on the study methods, exam technique, and worked-response style that helped him achieve that result.

What this is

Not a textbook. Not generic notes.

This is a problem-based resource focused on worked model responses. Each module contains syllabus-aligned questions and detailed solutions designed to help students:

Worked model responses

Detailed solutions with explanations, working, and response structure.

Exam technique built in

Short-answer wording, key phrases, and calculation steps are written with HSC marking expectations in mind.

FAQ

Frequently asked

What exactly is included?

Each module contains syllabus-aligned Physics questions with detailed worked model responses. Questions are organised by topic and difficulty: easy, medium, and hard.

Is this a textbook?

No. This is not designed to replace your school notes or textbook. It is a problem-based resource designed to help you practise applying concepts and writing stronger responses.

Are the solutions detailed?

Yes. The focus is on showing the reasoning, working, and response structure behind each answer, not just giving the final result.

How should I use this resource?

Attempt each question first. Then compare your working with the model response. Pay particular attention to wording, units, diagrams, assumptions, and the steps included in the solution.

How do I receive the files?

After purchase, you will receive a download link by email. The resources are provided as PDFs.

Can I buy just one module?

Yes. Each module is available individually for $59. The complete bundle is $149.

Use these model responses to sharpen your exam technique, clarify difficult concepts, and prepare with confidence before trials and the HSC.
