Compulsory Paper 1 vs Paper 2
Paper 1 is long questions without a calculator; Paper 2 is multiple choice with a calculator. Alternate practice by paper type.
M1/M2 need earlier start
Calculus and statistics modules move quickly in Form 5–6. Begin past-paper practice at least four months before DSE.
