    AQA English Lit Past Papers...
    Hey guys, I'm pretty new to The Student Room

    I've just been on the AQA past paper site; and to my surprise I've only found past papers for the last 3 years of English Literature A...

    Does anyone have copies of any previous years i.e. -2003 that they could share with us please? It could be very valuable ^^

    Thanks, Vincent

    Damn I have a booklet with past papers from '97-'06 which came very useful in the last week. I'll do my best to scan some up for you.

    I'll tell you something though. Edexcel's syllabus is hard yet the grade boundaries are rather low. This year, an A* required 74% overall. Now the trick which helped me achieve an A* was my coursework. I ended up getting 58% out of 60% (so I walked in the exam with a high B pretty much). The exam always proves to be challenging but don't let that put you off. I'll be honest and say my only ICT revision was in my mum's car half an hour before the exam due to revising English Lit the night before for the morning session. I blagged a lot of answers, especially involving questions around batch processing...etc.

    Re: Igcse & Gcse Help!!
    Well, I searched a bit and found these two geography papers, although the links for the inserts weren't working from where I tried:

    http://www.cambridgestudents.org.uk/...0_s03_qp_1.pdf
    http://www.cambridgestudents.org.uk/...0_s03_qp_3.pdf
    http://www.cambridgestudents.org.uk/...0_s03_qp_5.pdf

    If you look at the second link, you'll find that they have model answers at the bottom... You can find more of those here:
    http://www.cambridgestudents.org.uk/...igcsegeography
    Click on the Geography Model Answers link...

    Hope that helps

    I take it you are doing Cambridge International Examinations? If so, just go on the website and they give you some past papers...otherwise you have to send away for the CDs.

    Here is a link to the website for chemistry....

    GCSE Latin Past Papers
    Greetings all, and my humblest apologies to the moderators if I have failed to start this thread in the correct location.

    This is an urgent plea for help. I am due to sit the first OCR GCSE Latin paper (Higher Tier) in approximately 3 and a half weeks, and as an independent candidate, have not received much in the way of tuition or support. Specifically, I am in desperate need of Paper 3 (Language 2) practice questions, and either sample or past paper questions relating to both the verse and prose literature papers (2007 specification).

    I have so far managed to obtain papers from 2005, 2006 and 2007. Might anyone have any more?

    Below are the details of the syllabus I have been (attempting) to follow:

    Paper 1 - Unseen Comprehension and Translation (Higher)
    Paper 2 - Verse Literature (Higher)

    Ovid - Baucis and Philemon
    Horace - The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
    Martial -The City, Hour by Hour
    Horace - A Country Spring
    Ovid - The Sights, Sounds and Seasons of the Countryside

    Paper 3 - Language 2 (Higher)
    Paper 4 - Prose Literature (Higher)

    Pliny the Younger - The Death of Pliny the Elder
    Cicero - Clodia
    Sallust - Sempronia

    Any and all help will be most gratefully received.

    Module 5 Past Papers?
    Does anyone have any links to the AQA Module 5 past papers, when I tried the AQA site it said you need a password which you obtain by sending it to your center number, which I obviously cannot do, so would anyone be able to host and of the Past Papers, including Answer Booklets preferably?
    Thanks, in advance.
