How many past papers per day?

Scroll to see replies

I'm on about 2 or 3 a day, marking every few days or so. That's only for maths at the moment - philosophy I haven't done any past papers yet and I'm waiting until study leave to start properly on physics as they're at the end of my exam leave.

So far today I have did 5 pastpapers

2 Maths (89% and 85%) (solomon papers)

1 Chemistry (80%)

1 Physics (75%)

1 Biology (83%)

Not that happy.. but first set of pastpapers without using any text books at all.

I do about 4 to 5 papers each day. My revision is nearly complete so i get enough time >>>Exams start from next week.

I do 2-3 a day, though with no study leave it's quite hard to fit everything in (I get home at 4 - 5). First exams are on 13th May - hopefully I'll have got most things done by then.

hi

how many past paper should I be doing per day?

I have 8 exams in june

It really depends on the way you work- during GCSE I probably did 6/7 a day with revision in between to break it up... At a level I do more topic papers- so exam questions in each topic and then about 6 papers of the old spec a day and then closer to the exam so in a couple of weeks I start the new papers but they're about 2 hours long- so can only do 3/4 in a day with revision.

Hope that helps :smile:
