The physics exams for access to the UFMG had passed for some changes until presenting the current profile, according to the educational context of the epoch. In this work, we present how the physics content approach have been evolved since the access exam implementation (1970) until today. For this, we analyzed some questions of these exams and we performed some interviews with professors from the elaboration exam team. We perceived that several tendencies in Physics exams were present since 80's. This means that the current shape in the Exams is inheritance of the 80's professors Exam Team thought.
