Year 11 mock Revision List – January 2016

IGCSE chemistry consists of the following:

Paper 1 = 45 minutes, 40 multiple choice questions (40 marks)
Paper 3 = 75 minutes, short answer questions (90 marks)
Paper 5 = 75 minute practical exam (40 marks)
There are three versions of each paper (11/12/13, 31/32/33, 51/52/53) as these are used
in different time zones around the world. Any of these can be used for revision.
