- Your trial exam (better known as a mock exam) for maths will be a terminal exam paper - similar to the one that you will take in June.
- Obviously in June, we won't know what's on the paper until the day of the exam, but for this exam we can give you a revision list.
- Make sure you cover the topics for grades that your class is targeting - for example if you are in set 2, your class proably hasn't covered any A* work yet, so don't worry about those topics.
- Some of the topics are hyperlinked, so you can find some useful revision material online.
- I will add more links to this over the next week, so check back soon!
Some of these links are to My Maths - you will need the login and password
