The National Physics Olympiad is an annual competition that tests high school students' knowledge and problem-solving skills in physics. It is open to students from all over Greece and is organized by the Hellenic Physical Society.
The Olympiad consists of two rounds: a theoretical exam and a practical exam. The theoretical exam consists of multiple-choice and open-ended questions, while the practical exam requires students to solve problems and conduct experiments. The top-performing students from the first round are invited to participate in the second round.
The Olympiad is open to high school students in Greece who are interested in physics and have a strong understanding of the subject. Students can participate individually or as part of a team representing their school.
The main goal of the Olympiad is to promote interest and excellence in physics among high school students. It also aims to identify and recognize talented students in the field of physics and provide them with opportunities to further develop their skills.
To prepare for the Olympiad, students can study past exam papers and practice solving physics problems. It is also recommended to read and understand the concepts and principles of physics, as well as to participate in physics-related extracurricular activities and competitions.
