Summer 2025

Edexcel Higher
Between Papers Practice (Paper 2 & 3)

This resource has been designed to support GCSE revision. The


questions are from our Question Generators on drfrost.org.
This resource has been designed to aid with revision for the
Summer 2025 exams, considering topics which commonly appear
on the calculator papers and those which have already been
examined in Paper 1. There is no guarantee that any topics
assessed in Paper 1 will not appear again.
Hence, this should not be considered as a predicted paper and
should not be relied upon for total preparation for Paper 2 or 3.

Teachers
With a Dr Frost subscription, this selection of questions
can be found as a worksheet here or by using the QR code.
From this page you can set this as an online task/homework
or create a shadow paper for further practice.
All exam practice resources for multiple exam boards in summer 2025 can
be found here.
