AQA Paper 3H
(June 2024)
-------------------------------- Disclaimer --------------------------------
This paper has been created based on the most common paper 3 topics from previous years
and also careful analysis of what topics have already appeared in paper 1/2. The paper should
be excellent at helping students revise for exams, however should not be relied upon as the
basis for revision. The topics from this paper may well appear in the real exams, however
there is absolutely no guarantee of this. Some topics may appear, some may not. Anybody
giving you any sort of guarantee is misleading you. If any topics or questions from this paper
do come up, this is just lucky guessing and nothing more. ☺

Ultimately the best way to prepare for the exams is to revise all topics.
