where to find harder tmua problems?

Hello,
Ive done all the mat papers, ecaa, engaa ukmt papers and tmua papers up to 2021 (im saving 22 and 23 tmua for september) and also all the papers on r2drew2s channel, does anyone know where I can find any harder style tmua questions because from what ive heard the tmua has gotten way harder in recent years.

Surely after doing all that you should be well prepared? Where do you think the gap is to what you need to take it now?

The exam changed to being delivered by Pearson since 2024 so not sure why you think it has got 'way harder' in recent years?

Idk i just saw a lot of posts online that the 2024 paper was a lot harder than previous years.
Right now I think i just need to focus on timed practice and also revisiting all the questions I got wrong or struggled with and going over the key approaches in those questions. The gap i think is just me being confident that all the techniques I learnt can be applied to completely new/harder questions.

Would you recommend using ECCA, ENGAA and SMC papers to help with the TMUA as I am struggling a bit.

The ECAA and ENGAA papers are a lot easier than tmua, so i guess its good as like a warmup for what is to come in the tmua. I found that SMC papers are a bit more out there in terms of the kinds of questions they ask but I found they do test your problem solving skills quite well and there are some good tmua style problems (esp like the function problems towards the end of some of the papers).
