How we counted: Abrari matched each question in these papers, including items whose answer key is still under review, to the one textbook unit it tests. The shares are approximate and are not an official exam blueprint.

How to use this

  • Start with the units marked “Start here”. Together they are about half of the paper.
  • 16 units came up in every year from 2015 to 2018 E.C.
  • Answer letters are spread evenly across A, B, C and D, so guessing patterns do not help. Practise unit by unit, then sit a full paper against the clock.
