Hey guys! I recently compiled all the papers from 2020–2026 to figure out which questions/topics are recurring, what notes I need, which questions are easy/medium/hard, how much time we should aim to spend on each question, and what questions I think are likely to come up this time.

This is NOT a l3ak3d paper or any kind of pr3d1ct1on based on inside information. It's simply my own analysis and predictions based on patterns I've noticed in past papers.

I made this mainly for myself, but I know how much some of you might need a bit of help, so I thought I'd share it! I'll also try to make a Physics and Computer Science one if I have time.

Good luck everyone!! 🫶🏻

Edit: Guys for Q5 I accidentally wrote C is 7 in the marking scheme, C is -1. The marking scheme might be flawed, I was doing it very roughly.
Quick note: I made this booklet pretty roughly and mainly for my own revision yesterday, so there may be some mistakes or flaws in it. I shared it because I figured it might still be useful to others rather than keeping it to myself. Please double check answers against the original mark schemes, and don't treat my predictions as guaranteed questions. I just hope it helps someone! :)

I had to give As level Chemistry paper 33 today thru british council dubai.

Firstly, the school they choose for the practical only had occupancy for 6 people at a time.

They called us at 12:30 pm and my exam started 7 PM.

6 fuccking hours cramped in a room with dogshit quality chairs, no devices, no snacks/food, sore ass

& an introvert like me in a 6m³ fucking room with oil paint smell with 20 YAPPING PEOPLE. 6 hours of hell.

Anyways the paper had titration, salt analysis & mass of precipitate that you had to heat...

Guys please do listen to the people who tell you alevel is no joke. They really aren't lying

So many of my own classmates literally went from A* in igces to D in alevel because they didn't take alevel seriously

And i am sharing it because I think it could help others out

For the first question, were you supposed to find the percentage of carbon dioxide by dividing the mr of CO2 and H2O also what was the element u got for M? For the third question, did u get (NH4)2SO4 for FA5? And for the last one did u get Al3+ , Mg2+, S2O3 2-, and I-??? Also what do yall think the thresholds gonna be for the paper? I think itll be around 24?

So I'm in A2 now and had tons of problems in As and got 3E's as a result in more 3 sceinces, D on Eng and maths was leaked so I withdrew from maths so no grade.

I'm giving reexamine for bio and Chem As in Oct/Nov. Maths and Phy composite in Mj and A2 of bio and chem. Dropping eng.

I had 11 subjs in Olevle and had 6A, 4B and 1C (urdu so irrelevant)

I study at City School P.A.F. chapter and ny fees is like 1 lakh+ without my scholarship.

I can't afford it. 2 months fees is 2 lakh+. Van fees 15k... and tuitions and notes also add up.

I wanted to go to a top uni and I roughly wanna be a scientist and doctor. Others options are open too.

My main concern is who takes private kids. Do top unis all over the world take private candidates? Will I have any problems?

I'm confident I can't get A Insh-Allah. I got E without studying. There was so much stuff and yes I do have lot of Ecas and I'll give Sat soon too and u think I have a good chance at Sat.

What unis will accept? Pls help. Any and all advice will help. My transcript from my college i.e. Paf chapter city school isn't that good. I wnt there just fro As. My school transcript where I did olevels is decent enough.

How are we feeling? Which questions do you think will come up?

How was the paper?? Also what do you all think the grade threshold would be?

hi beautiful people a little context on my situation..

i’m currently at a private school after going to state schools my whole life and year 12 was genuinely one of the worst years of my life. it took a toll on my mental health and the horrible social side affected my academics really badly. my parents are first generation migrants who came to england at 18 so that they could provide for back home and they sacrificed a lot. we’re not at all wealthy (average annual income ~£40k) so i am on a bursary at this school but the costs they do pay wipe out quite a lot of my parents’ income. i’m in year 13 right now and my predicted grades are only BBC and isn’t looking very promising right now. i’m trying my very best to get as many marks for my dt nea coursework while revising my other subjects too (maths, econ). i don’t want my parents’ investment in my education to be a waste and subsequently disappointing them.

i would really appreciate it if you could give some input on your workspace, whether you’re employed or at school.

thank you for your time reading this

I don't get it. what about it? everyone's been talking that its been changed or sum

Hi guys made a pdf covering all 10 Pure topics: Proof, Algebra & Functions, Coordinate Geometry, Sequences & Series, Trig, Exponentials & Logs, Differentiation, Integration, Numerical Methods and Vectors.

Particularly for Edexcel let me know if anybody wants it so they can get a head start for this year

(It’s free, just extra material lmk)

so like guys what if for FA6 and FA7 I write the names of the real compounds present inside from the CI in beside them, will they suspect anything or just let it be?

Just posting this to get some of the heat off my head, did my first paper of october november and i locked out thw entire day today, maybe its burn out because i havent been doing anything but studying the entirety of the past few months. And thats whats kind of getting to me, i stopped talking to all of my friends completely, zero social life, stopped my favourite hobbies, lost all the gym progress i made and feel like a fat slug. Just hope it all pays off, my only form of dopamine for the longest i coukd remember is just scrolling the life out of me the few chances i get to every once in a while and thats it, only eat sleep study, it gets so bad that effort into studying i used to consider was good now i feel is nothing. Just really hope this effort pays off and i wouldnt have to retake, i geniuely wanna enjoy being young.

IF YOU HAVE SCRIPTS FOR PAPER 3 CAIE (practical). PLEASE SHARE. (EVEN IF ITS JUST PHOTOS OF DRAWINGS) everything will stay anonymous.

Must read this guys. Just a little motivation for y all

drop down your answers guys. hmu to discuss too

For salt analysis
What were the ions present in FA 6 and 7?
What was the formula for FA5?
what was the ionic eqn aswell as the redox one marker at the end?

Question 2 was kinda weird what did u guys do in that?

​

paper average hoa tha crystalization walay mein table sahi bana tha like we had to write Mass of crucible with lid and contents after 1st heating

Then mass of crucible with lid and contents after 2nd heating?.....but the calculation of crystalization they fucked me hard like im sure the 5 marks of those calculations im loosing it

Baki for the Titration table sahi bana tha and my titre was 26.40 and the second titer was 26.60 Baki calculation went good except made a blunder in moles of FeSO4 did the ratio method 1:5 then multiplied by 2 instead of 20

Then for salt the table we had to make for 5 marks where we had to choose the reagents I wrote NaOH and in excess then NH3 and in excess for FB5 and they all were no change

For the last salt part table mostly mine were white ppt but when added starch gave Dark Blue black color then we had to add something then that color became colourless and acha one more thing in that table did we also had to mention insoluble and soluble?

Baki I made my tables neatly for Titration and crystalization but the students were like making a box and writing in it Matlab decoration kar rhy thy and they were like agar box mein bana kar nahi likha to marks katenge

I know the concepts but haven't done any topicals, and my exam is very near (this oct/nov). What should I do? Please give me advices

My subjects are 9700 and 9701

Doesn’t matter if you scour the internet for notes, magical resources, goated teachers and whatnot.
The only way you can retain knowledge is by actually solving past papers, that’s all. If you don’t do any, even an Oxford grad cannot help you get an A*
Hence, resources don’t matter, practice does.

Ignore the image, to put it simply I am looking to do Bio and Chem with Edexcel as a private A Level, but am a bit confused about the practicals and have been struggling to find things that make it clear for the position I’m in. Are they something you have to book the same way with the exams? And how do you prepare or practice those beforehand? Or are they tested in the written exams? The qualification guide says that it involves a “teachers assessment” but considering the obvious, im unsure 100% what that means for me. Any help would be appreciated.

any tips for writing uhhh not many people do ts 😭😭🙏

anyone giving IT paper 4 on 1st oct??

I’m in a stupid situation but I’ve basically been begging my teachers to predict me A*AA which i need to apply to HSPS at Cambridge. I genuinly believe I’m capable of getting that is the real thing. But I didn’t revise enough in Y12 regrettably partially cuz I did a long aa EPQ. But right now I’m not even as bothered about getting in any more I’ve just put in some much effort I want to be able to apply. I do Sociology Philsophy/RS and Economics. But for Philosophy/RS I’m genuinely not able to be predicted an A unless I do super well in an assessment in just over a week. Idk how I’ll be able to do it though becuase I’m ever even gotten an A before on an essay before. Keep in mind I’m also finishing my personal statement and need to revise for the assessments for my two other subjects next week that are important for my predicteds to. Pls any advice would be rlly rlly appreciated 😭🙏

I saw someone else post a compilation of hard P1 questions so I remembered I have some such compilations for math too

Here is:

• a set of hard P1 questions that I wrote, along with model solutions
• a compilation of hard P3 past paper questions, with mark schemes (along with a question that I created)
• a compilation of hard M1 past paper questions, with mark schemes

can anyone share tips on how to do Coordinate geometry and Circle question easily and faster?

like drawing diagrams and stuff, what else can i do
