Varsity Tutors offers OAT Physics prep courses to students who need more preparation for the Physics section of the OAT assessment. If you need guidance in learning better study techniques so you can go into the exam day with more confidence, contact Varsity Tutors for details on getting started with a qualified instructor in an OAT Physics course.
One invaluable benefit of an OAT Physics class is that you get the opportunity to work with a knowledgeable tutor in a personalized setting. With one-on-one tutoring, you can feel free to ask the tutor any questions you have about the material that you need assistance with. In the OAT Physics prep class, the tutor is focused on helping you reach your study goals, so they will respond to your questions in a timely matter. The tutor will foster open communication with you so that you can feel more confident about the material you have learned and more focused on what you need to study for the exam.
In the OAT Physics course, your experience level in Physics concepts can tested by the tutor. The purpose of this assessment during the OAT Physics classes is to gauge your knowledge of the concepts and set a course of study for the sessions. Throughout the ensuing lessons, the tutor will ascertain how you're progressing and what other concepts you need more guidance in.
The following bullet list shows some of the common topics that are covered in the OAT Physics exam. Your tutor can work with you in OAT Physics prep classes to evaluate your readiness in each of these topics.
Common Topics Covered (non-comprehensive)
- Mass and weight
- Power
- Density
- Pressure
- Kinematics
- Force
- Gravity
- Energy
- Friction
- Momentum
- Work
- Power
- Springs
There are 40 stand-alone, multiple-choice questions on the Physics section of the OAT assessment, and you have 50 minutes to complete them. Some of the topics included consist of thermodynamics, vectors, and energy and momentum. Standardized tests can be overwhelming, but completing an OAT Physics prep course can help you learn relaxation techniques for exam day. The tutor can show you how to focus and relax so that you can complete the test when you feel pressured.
During the Physics class, the tutor can give you a timed practice test so you can get an idea of what is involved and how well you do under pressure. If you need extra practice questions during the tutoring, the tutor can arrange that. The main purpose of the OAT Physics prep class is to help you feel more confident in both your knowledge and test-taking skills on exam day. That means optimized study and the opportunity to have the exam experience simulated in a customized tutoring setting can be very beneficial.
The following data chart details various physics concepts that will be covered on the OAT Physics exam. If you have trouble in any of these areas, your tutor can help you study more for those content areas during OAT Physics courses.
| Linear Motion | Rotational Motion |
| Force | Torque |
| Mass | Moment of Inertia |
| Distance Traveled | Angle Rotated |
| Velocity | Angular Velocity |
| Acceleration | Angular Acceleration |
If you would like to learn more about the benefits of taking an OAT Physics class, contact Varsity Tutors for more details. You can improve your study and test-taking skills and work on relaxation techniques with your tutor. You'll benefit from personalized tutoring with a qualified instructor.

Tahir: Waltham OAT Physics course instructor
As a master's student and former medical student, I know how challenging academics can be. I also know how having a helping hand, a guidance through the confusion, can help one gain confidence in themselves to excel. From tutoring children to post-graduates, I have seen that all students (no matter their age, level of education, strengths, weaknesses, etc.) who are willing to learn can succeed. ... In a typical first session, the student and I usually discuss their goals and what specifically they would like to improve over time.
