Five Year Past Paper Question Analysis by topic and frequency
1. Arithmetic
• Percentage: 23%
• Recurring Patterns:
o Practical scenarios like percentage calculations, proportional reasoning, and
mean/average problems.
o Real-world applications such as cost analysis and recurring decimals.
o Foundational numerical operations integrated with problem-solving tasks.
2. Algebra
• Percentage: 30%
• Recurring Patterns:
o A strong focus on solving equations, simplifying expressions, and
manipulating formulas.
o Recurring themes of sequences, including arithmetic and geometric sequences.
o Multi-step algebraic reasoning tasks requiring careful interpretation and
precision.
3. Geometry
• Percentage: 18%
• Recurring Patterns:
o Problems involving area, volume, and dimensions of 2D and 3D shapes.
o Application of circle theorems, trigonometric calculations, and
transformations.
o Geometry is often integrated with arithmetic or algebra in real-world contexts.
4. Probability and Statistics
• Percentage: 15%
• Recurring Patterns:
o Straightforward probability calculations using Venn diagrams and tree
diagrams.
