The dynamics of the tasks used in physics admission exams

There has been studied the development dynamics of the form and content of physics tests (from the test database) which were designed to check skills and knowledge of high school graduates. There has been given detailed information about the test database’,s main forming phases and there have also been analyzed the requirements for the tests, their difficulty degree and nominations. The test database covering all the fields of physics meets the necessary requirements and enables to check skills and knowledge of school graduates. There has been investigated the distribution of the tasks offered during 1992- 2000 according to their nominations. Statistical analysis of the examination results has been conducted and there has been studied the discrimination quotients of the tasks that were used. It was found out that it is more advisable to use quality type problems to assess the knowledge of the school graduates rather than factological types of problems. So starting with 2000 the preference has been given to quality type problems in university admission tests. The analysis of the results of semester exams in Oil Academy which is one of the best educational institutions of Azerbaijan demonstrated that students’, performance in physics has become increasingly stronger in recent years.
