MOREIRA, José Guilherme  e  FILGUEIRA, Valmária Gomes. Survey of major problems of students using data of selection procedure. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2008, vol.10, n.1, pp.69-82. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172008100106.

Using data of selective processes, we propose a way to verify the main difficulties of the high school students with physics contents learning in this degree. In this analysis, we used data of the socioeconomic questionnaires that the candidates of the selective process of UFMG filled in and the results of some physics questions of this process. Thus it is possible to relate the attractiveness of the alternative with the socioeconomic data - kind of school they have been to for most time of their high school and their parents schooling. We noted that the difficulties of the students were different to each socioeconomic group and, with this result, we try to understand how the comprehension of the students about the topics concerned in these questions evolves.
