Common questions
Where can I find Chemistry past papers from WJEC?
This page links every Chemistry paper WJEC publishes for everyone to download, newest first, starting with June 2025. Each link opens the PDF on WJEC's own website. The most recent series is usually released a year or so after the exam, and it will appear here once WJEC makes it public.
Are there mark schemes for these Chemistry papers?
Yes, 6 of the 9 question papers here have a mark scheme, and 9 have an examiner report as well, which is worth reading for the mistakes that cost the most marks.
What were the Chemistry grade boundaries in June 2026?
In June 2026, an A needed 320 out of 400 uniform marks and a C needed 240. The grade boundaries for every series from June 2019 to June 2026 are on this course's grade boundaries page, and each series of papers here links to its own year's table, so you can mark a paper and read your grade.
Where is the Chemistry specification?
It is linked at the top of this page: WJEC's own Chemistry specification (3410), a PDF on its website, which sets out what you can be examined on and how the exams are marked.
How can I practise more Chemistry questions?
Once you have worked through the papers, cookie has a practice deck for this course with fresh questions based on the specification and past papers, feedback on what you write, and spaced repetition.
Can I get help with Chemistry?
Cookie Tutoring may have tutors for Chemistry. The Find a tutor link keeps the subject and qualification filters from this page, so you can check the marketplace without assuming that a suitable tutor is available.
