dc.description.abstractThe study investigated difficulty levels of senior school physics concept as perceived by students and teachers in Ilorin. The population comprised all physics students and physics teachers in Ilorin. Three hundred, and eighty-five students and 56 physics teachers formed the sample for the study.
