Do this paper in cookie

"Do this paper" opens the question paper from AQA in a small window beside cookie (a new tab on a phone). Download it, then choose the file in cookie, with the mark scheme too if you want to mark it there. Then you can time yourself, write on the paper, mark it and see the grade it would have got. The files stay on your device and are never sent to us.

Did it on paper already? "Log a score" takes your mark without the file. Your papers and scores go into My papers, and a past papers revision plan can spread the rest out before your exam. All of it is optional.

Grade boundaries for this paper

There is no table for Specimen, so these are the June 2017 boundaries for the same paper (7402/2), the nearest series we have. Boundaries move a little from year to year. A grade for one paper on its own is only a guide; the real grade comes from all the papers together.
