​Beginning term 131, the Physics Department plans to conduct a Physics Diagnostic Test (PDT) for all present and incoming Physics Graduate students. The purpose of the test is to identify students’ deficiencies so that the Department can advise them accordingly on how to remedy them before they graduate. The results of the PDT will not affect students’ Grade Point Average. Nonetheless, students will be required to take the test. The PDT is the same as the exam that our senior students will be required to take when they graduate with a Bachelor’s degree.
