Frequently Asked Questions

What topics are covered in the GCSE Combined Science predicted papers?

Our predicted papers cover a range of key topics across the GCSE Combined Science specification. Topic selection is informed by careful analysis of past exam papers and recurring themes. While they offer focused practice on areas that may come up in the 2026 exams, they are only a guide and should be used alongside thorough revision of the full specification to ensure complete coverage.

Are the GCSE Combined Science predicted papers exam-board specific?

Our GCSE Combined Science (Trilogy) predicted papers are available separately for AQA and Edexcel Higher Tier, with each set written to reflect the structure, layout, and question styles used by that specific exam board. Designed to mirror real exam papers, they give students board-specific practice that supports focused revision and helps build confidence ahead of the exams.

Do the GCSE Combined Science predicted papers assess maths skills?

Yes, our predicted papers include questions that assess mathematical skills, mirroring the types of maths-based questions you can expect in the 2026 GCSE Combined Science exams. At least 20% of the marks in GCSE Combined Science will be awarded for maths skills, so practising these questions is essential for exam success.

Can I use the equation sheet when completing the GCSE Combined Science predicted papers?

Yes, you will need the Physics Equation Sheet for Physics Predicted Papers 1 and 2, just as in the real GCSE Combined Science exams. You can download the 2026 Physics Equation Sheet from your exam board’s website if you don’t have a copy.

Are there worked solutions for the GCSE Combined Science predicted papers?

Each predicted paper comes with a detailed mark scheme, outlining key marking points and expected answers. However, full worked solutions are not provided. If you need help understanding specific questions or want one-to-one support with exam technique, you can book a tuition session with a PMT tutor.

Will using predicted papers improve my exam technique?

Absolutely! Predicted papers help you develop key exam skills, such as understanding command words, applying knowledge to unfamiliar contexts, and structuring extended responses effectively. Completing them under timed conditions improves time management, while self-marking with the mark scheme allows you to see the key terms and phrases examiners look for in top-mark responses.
