Questions students ask
Where is the OCR Specimen Paper 1 mark scheme?
OCR publishes this specimen's mark scheme alongside it on its own website: use the board's past-paper page.
What are the grade boundaries for OCR A Level Maths papers?
We don't copy grade boundaries. OCR publishes the official boundaries for every series on its grade boundaries page (opens in a new tab). A Level Maths boundaries are set for the whole qualification (all three papers together), so a single paper has no grade of its own.
How long is OCR A Level Maths Paper 1?
2 h, 100 marks, Calculator allowed. Pure Mathematics only (OCR content 1.01 to 1.10).
Can I download the paper from this site?
No. The papers are © OCR and we link to the official copies instead of hosting them, so you always get the board's current file. If a link breaks, the board's past-paper page has the same file.
