Are these real past paper questions because our schools done practically all the past papers for edexcel maths humanely possible. now we do AQA cause we've run out.

Please let the edexcel IGCSE students join in. Content is quite similar just IGCSE has some extra topics and is less wordy with its questions. :-)

Good practice.

The predictions never work though and the questions on it are quite hard that they actually are in the real exam.

But its better to spend 3 minutes practicing a hard question that could gain you 6 marks in the exam, then you could just loose in the exam if you didn't do it before

yes because it asks questions in 3 or 4 parts, but its good to look at some variation they could ask, what do you think?

how come you got that? i got p=1600 and q=1/2 as i referenced to the point on the graph where t=0 and F=1600 and anything to the power of 0 is one so just rearranged

How do you know they've made maths harder this year, and in what way? I know it got really difficult last year, but I figured they'd go a bit lighter because of all the backlash :/
