Primrose kitten predicted papers! Accuracy??

Hi, hope you're day is going well!
I was just wondering if anyone has used the primrose kitten predicted papers for GCSE and found them helpful for the exams, I haven't been in school for a year so I am very behind so can't cover the whole specification!! I bought the GCSE separate higher science ones for 2025 and I'm just scared they are not accurate. I'm seeing a bunch of mixed reviews on them. Most positive ones seem to be from GCSE students and the negative ones seem to be from ALEVEL students so that is putting me at ease a little bit, but I just thought I'd hop on here to see if anyone would share their experience/opinion on them.

i think predicted papers are fine for practice but u shouldnt fully rely on them - i advice going for those high leverage topics that come uo every year and required practicals aswelll

I agree with this. End of the day, no one can predict a paper 100% . The predicted papers should be for good practice imitating the actual exam. I found Tyrions Predicted papers to be an excellent choice tho

I agree with woodselle.. i would use predicted papers as just an extra practise and not as a guidance to only revise the topics that come up in that.
for an example, i did my aqa gcse psych paper 1 today and my school had previously given us the primrose kitten paper 1 to practise. although it was good practise to see which topics i'm weak in or struggling, it wasn't a direct copy or similar to the actual paper at all. it had a few topics that didn't actually come up in the paper today

obviously i'm not criticising predicted papers and saying you shouldn't buy them, but i would still suggest going through the spec of whatever subject you need instead of full reliance on predicted papers.. in the end, no one can fully predict what's gonna come up, so might as well try and revise everything yknow?
