Past Exam Papers


One of the best ways to revise and prepare for what is coming in an exam is to use past exam papers.

To the right of this post (in the green box at the top of the blog) is a section called 'Resources'. I have gathered together the last 3 years worth of WJEC exams papers for you to use.

You will have exactly the same format of exam for the THREE papers that you will sit this summer. The first papers are the Germany (1919-45) and the small USA (1910-29) ones (1 hour each) with a compulsory sources question to start each one. For these you should learn the '4 Laws of Source Questions' (I will post about this later in the week).

Your last paper is the big USA (1929-90) one (1 hour 20 mins) with a large 10 mark question after each section (you need to pick 2 out of 3 sections to answer).

Let me know if you have any questions/comments.
