Edexcel A Level Maths revision
Practice for every topic on the Pearson Edexcel A level Mathematics specification (9MA0; AS 8MA0). The content is the same A Level Maths content every board examines, so each topic below maps to your Edexcel papers. Our questions and mark schemes are written in the style of this specification, so Edexcel students get the closest match in wording and mark allocation.
- Pure, statistics and mechanics
- Year 12 and Year 13
- Step-by-step mark schemes
The three Edexcel 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 1. Paper 2: pure mathematics 2. Paper 3: statistics and mechanics.
| Paper | Title | Content |
|---|---|---|
| Paper 1 | Pure Mathematics 1 | Any pure content (Pure topics 1–10) |
| Paper 2 | Pure Mathematics 2 | Any pure content (Pure topics 1–10) |
| Paper 3 | Statistics and Mechanics | Section A: statistics (topics 1–5). Section B: mechanics (topics 6–9) |

What matches your Edexcel 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. That is your board, so the wording and mark allocation will feel familiar.
The large data set: our guide
Edexcel sets some Paper 3 statistics questions on its own large data set (Met Office weather data). Our Edexcel large data set guide explains the data and has practice questions with worked solutions; work with the spreadsheet itself in class too.

| Formulae | Pearson's Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables booklet, given in the exam. Our A Level Maths formula sheet (free PDF) marks what is given, so you know what to learn; formulas to memorise for 9MA0. Every board side by side: Edexcel A Level Maths formula booklet compared with the other boards. |
|---|---|
| Calculator | Pearson allows a calculator in every 9MA0 exam. It must have an iterative function and be able to work out summary statistics and probabilities from standard distributions; calculators with symbolic algebra, symbolic differentiation or integration are not allowed. Step-by-step guides: normal distribution · binomial probabilities · mean and standard deviation · solving equations · tables of values and iteration · all calculator skills. |

Edexcel A Level Maths: common questions
Does A Level Math Revision cover the Edexcel 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 mark allocation match your papers closely. We are not endorsed by Edexcel.
What is on each Edexcel A Level Maths paper?
Paper 1 (Pure Mathematics 1): Any pure content (Pure topics 1–10). Paper 2 (Pure Mathematics 2): Any pure content (Pure topics 1–10). Paper 3 (Statistics and Mechanics): Section A: statistics (topics 1–5). Section B: mechanics (topics 6–9). 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 Edexcel A Level Maths?
Yes: Pearson's Mathematical Formulae and Statistical 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 Edexcel A Level Maths?
Yes, in all three papers. Pearson allows a calculator in every 9MA0 exam. It must have an iterative function and be able to work out summary statistics and probabilities from standard distributions; calculators with symbolic algebra, symbolic differentiation or integration are not allowed.
Where can I find Edexcel A Level Maths past papers?
On the Edexcel website. Our Edexcel past papers page links to the official papers and mark schemes, with a timer, and never copies them.
Is the Edexcel large data set covered?
Edexcel sets some Paper 3 statistics questions on its own large data set (Met Office weather data). Our Edexcel large data set guide explains the data and has practice questions with worked solutions; work with the spreadsheet itself in class too.
How is Edexcel 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.
