AAU Admission (Ethiopia) 1-Year Plan

Motion in one and two dimensions, Newton's laws, friction, circular motion, work-energy theorem, and momentum conservation. Core EUEE physics topic with frequent numerical problems.

Coulomb's law, electric fields and potential, capacitors, DC circuits, Kirchhoff's laws, magnetic fields, electromagnetic induction, and AC circuits. Highest-weight EUEE physics topic.

Simple harmonic motion, wave properties (amplitude, frequency, wavelength, speed), wave equations, superposition, standing waves, and sound waves.

Heat transfer, specific heat capacity, latent heat, first and second laws of thermodynamics, heat engines, and entropy concepts.

Reflection and refraction, lenses and mirrors, optical instruments, wave optics (interference, diffraction), and the human eye as an optical system.

Photoelectric effect, Bohr model of the atom, energy levels, radioactivity (alpha, beta, gamma decay), half-life, nuclear fission and fusion, and fundamental particles.

Pressure, Pascal's principle, Archimedes' principle, Bernoulli's equation, viscosity, and surface tension — concept-based and application-oriented problems.

Mendelian inheritance, DNA structure and replication, gene expression, transcription and translation, genetic disorders, and Punnett square applications — the highest-weight biology topic for EUEE.

Cell structure (prokaryotic and eukaryotic), organelles, cell membrane transport, mitosis and meiosis, cell cycle, and cellular respiration — foundational biology for EUEE science track.

Plant cell structure, photosynthesis (light and dark reactions), plant tissues, transport in plants (xylem, phloem), plant hormones, and reproduction in plants.

Animal classification, digestive system, circulatory system (open and closed), respiratory systems, nervous system, and endocrine system in humans and major animal groups.

Structure and function of major human organ systems — skeletal, muscular, digestive, respiratory, circulatory, nervous, and excretory systems. Common diseases and health topics.

Ecosystem components, food chains and food webs, biogeochemical cycles (carbon, nitrogen), ecological succession, population ecology, and environmental conservation.

Darwin's theory of evolution, natural selection, speciation, evidence of evolution (fossil record, homology), and evolutionary adaptations in organisms.

Asexual and sexual reproduction, gametogenesis, fertilization, embryonic development, metamorphosis, and reproductive health in humans.
