P1 topics
Every P1 paper draws on these topics. Each opens our P1 page: what the topic covers, a worked example with its mark scheme, then practice questions.

Recent P1 papers by topic
We matched every question in the 4 P1 papers from June 2024 to June 2025 to a topic, using Pearson's examiner reports. How many of those 4 papers had at least one question on each topic (a question can test more than one):
- Algebra: indices, surds, quadratics, inequalities: 4 of 4 papers, 12 questions · practise
- Graphs and transformations: 4 of 4 papers, 7 questions · practise
- Differentiation, tangents and normals: 4 of 4 papers, 7 questions · practise
- Integration and area: 4 of 4 papers, 7 questions · practise
- Trigonometry and radians: 4 of 4 papers, 6 questions · practise
- Straight lines: 3 of 4 papers, 3 questions · practise
4 series are a small sample, so use this to see what a P1 paper usually looks like, not to guess the next one. The page for each of those papers lists its questions one by one.
