Past Examination Papers
Past papers provide excellent opportunities to practice and hone your skills. It is important that you are able to use the skills and knowledge that you develop in class to unseen problems. In an exam paper you won't be told the specific skills or piece of knowledge you require so by practising you develop the examination, and life, skill of identifying the piece of mathematics you need to use.
