Below are the past papers from the exams. Remember that some topics in these papers will not be in your exams as the exam board have told use they are not being included this year.

I have inlcuded both AS and A Level papers as both contain the style and the types of questions that you could be asked in your exam.

I have attached copies of the data sheet you will need.
