The Canadian Association of Physicists puts together a high school physics examination targeted for upper-year physics students across Canada. It stresses logical and creative thinking, by asking questions going beyond the expectation of the classroom. Prizes are awarded to the top students both provincially and nationally.
The CAP 2025 High School Prize Exam is scheduled for April 9, 2025. For more information and the latest updates, please visit the CAP website, and contact the provincial coordinator regarding participation.
Interested teachers and students should contact their appropriate provincial coordinator.
For information about the exam organization, schedule, the exam committee or other physics competitions, visit the Secondary School Prize Examinations section on the main CAP site.
