AQA A Level Maths revision
Practice for every topic on the AQA A-level Mathematics specification (7357; AS 7356). The content is the same A Level Maths content every board examines, so each topic below maps to your AQA papers. AQA uses the DfE section letters (A Proof to S Moments) as its own content headings, so the mapping below is one to one.
- Pure, statistics and mechanics
- Year 12 and Year 13
- Step-by-step mark schemes
The three AQA A Level Maths papers
Quick answer. Each paper is a 2-hour written exam worth 100 marks and one third of the A-level. A calculator is allowed in all three. Paper 1: pure mathematics. Paper 2: pure and mechanics. Paper 3: pure and statistics.
| Paper | Title | Content |
|---|---|---|
| Paper 1 | Pure mathematics | Pure content (sections A–I) |
| Paper 2 | Pure and mechanics | Any Paper 1 content, plus vectors (J) and mechanics (sections P–S) |
| Paper 3 | Pure and statistics | Any Paper 1 content, plus statistics (sections K–O) |

What matches your AQA course, and what doesn't
The content: all of it
The DfE sets the A Level Maths content (proof to moments) for every board. Our topics cover the whole of it, Year 12 and Year 13.
The question style: Edexcel
Our questions and mark schemes are written in Edexcel 9MA0 style. AQA papers word some questions differently, so use your own past papers for exam-style rehearsal too.
The large data set: our guide
AQA sets some Paper 3 statistics questions on its own large data set (cars data from the Department for Transport). Our AQA large data set guide explains the data and has practice questions with worked solutions; work with the spreadsheet itself in class too.

| Formulae | AQA's Formulae and Statistics Tables booklet, given in the exam. Our A Level Maths formula sheet (free PDF) marks what is given, so you know what to learn. Every board side by side: AQA A Level Maths formula booklet compared with the other boards. |
|---|---|
| Calculator | AQA says a calculator is required in every 7357 exam. As a minimum it needs an iterative function, summary statistics, probabilities from standard distributions and an inverse normal function. Step-by-step guides: normal distribution · binomial probabilities · mean and standard deviation · solving equations · tables of values and iteration · all calculator skills. |

AQA A Level Maths: common questions
Does A Level Math Revision cover the AQA A Level Maths specification?
Yes, for the content. Every UK board examines the same A Level Maths content set by the Department for Education, and our topics cover all of it: pure, statistics and mechanics. Our questions are written in the style of Edexcel 9MA0, so wording and layout will differ a little from AQA papers. We are not endorsed by AQA.
What is on each AQA A Level Maths paper?
Paper 1 (Pure mathematics): Pure content (sections A–I). Paper 2 (Pure and mechanics): Any Paper 1 content, plus vectors (J) and mechanics (sections P–S). Paper 3 (Pure and statistics): Any Paper 1 content, plus statistics (sections K–O). Each paper is a 2-hour written exam worth 100 marks and one third of the A-level. A calculator is allowed in all three.
Do you get a formula booklet in AQA A Level Maths?
Yes: AQA's Formulae and Statistics Tables booklet. It doesn't include every formula, so learn the rest: our A Level Maths formula sheet marks what the booklet gives.
Can you use a calculator in AQA A Level Maths?
Yes, in all three papers. AQA says a calculator is required in every 7357 exam. As a minimum it needs an iterative function, summary statistics, probabilities from standard distributions and an inverse normal function.
Where can I find AQA A Level Maths past papers?
On the AQA website. Our AQA past papers page links to the official papers and mark schemes, with a timer, and never copies them.
Is the AQA large data set covered?
AQA sets some Paper 3 statistics questions on its own large data set (cars data from the Department for Transport). Our AQA large data set guide explains the data and has practice questions with worked solutions; work with the spreadsheet itself in class too.
How is AQA different from the other boards?
The content is the same for every board. The differences are where statistics and mechanics sit across the three papers, how the formulae are given and which large data set is used. Our exam board comparison puts AQA, Edexcel and OCR side by side.
