Past Paper

Does anyone know where to find walkthroughs on specific past papers, im searching for GCSE WJEC Mathmatics Unit 2 Higher Tier November 2021 (Very long), and its difficult them (walkthroughs) while they might not even exist to begin with. Is there like a website or platform that i need to go on?

Hey, that’s the exam I sat!!

Anyway, here are the websites I used that I found useful which definitely boosted my revision and helped me achieve the top grades:

- WJEC Past Papers: https://www.wjec.co.uk/qualifications/mathematics-gcse/#tab_pastpapers

The official WJEC site will offer past papers alongside their mark schemes. It is key to read the mark schemes in order to understand and mark any self-sat mocks you did! :smile:

- Mathsdiy:
https://www.mathsdiy.com/gcse-maths-past-papers/

This site was honestly a lifesaver. Unlike the WJEC, Mathsdiy has WRITTEN OUT answers showing HOW the person, who sat all those exams, worked out the answer. Furthermore, it provides, from what I can remember, “topic booklets” with all topics sorted into a long paper; that greatly helped me during my exams where I worked through all of the Mathsdiy topic booklets for every topic I found challenging. It’s very straightforward and highly valuable! :smile:

Both provide additional resources. For example, I did additional maths and both of these sites helped me IMMENSELY!! The official WJEC website has past papers, mark schemes and resources for any subject whilst Mathsdiy will give you valuable insight and assistance with maths, numeracy, additional maths etc!!

Hope this helps!! :biggrin: :biggrin:
