GCSE Mathematics Practice Papers
The Specimen Papers produced to support GCSE Mathematics Specifications A & B were deliberately written to highlight the changes in content of the new Specifications. As such, they do not fully reflect the style of the new papers. In view of this, it was decided that AQA examiners would produce a set of practice papers for Specification A and Module 5 of Specification B. These practice papers have been produced to give centres a more realistic set of papers for use as mocks or further practice. They have been written by the current examining team. As practice papers, they have not gone through the rigorous drafting and monitoring procedures which apply to actual papers. They have, however, been carefully checked for errors. Each paper, and the Mark Schemes, is password protected. Details of the password have been sent to AQA centres.
