Find past papers and marking instructions for your revision. You can search by topic and or refine by subject and level. To add the matching marking instructions simply tick the box.

We provide up to five years of past papers.

Some of the 2022 and 2023 past papers are labelled 'modified'. This means SQA made changes to the question paper in response to the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, as part of our modifications to assessment in National Courses. For example, a modified past paper may be shorter, have fewer marks or contain fewer topics than past papers from previous years.

Specimen question papers are available for National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher qualifications. These show what a question paper looks like - how it is structured and the types of questions it contains. They also include marking instructions. Find them under 'Past Papers and Marking Instructions' on our NQ subject pages.

Question Papers in Digital Format for candidates with disabilities and/or additional support needs.

The information in a past paper may be reproduced in support of SQA qualifications only on a non-commercial basis. If it is reproduced, SQA must be clearly acknowledged as the source. If it is to be reproduced for any other purpose, written permission must be obtained from permissions@sqa.org.uk

Where a past paper includes material for which SQA does not own the copyright, this material can only be reproduced on a non-commercial basis for the purposes of instruction in an educational establishment. If it is to be reproduced for any other purpose, it is the user's responsibility to obtain the necessary copyright clearance from the copyright owner.

Simple and Brilliant

I work in a shared space and I am currently writing a business plan. This tool is great for brainstorming both physically and over video conferencing services.

It's really easy to capture Post It Notes using a camera and then manipulating them on the digital board.

I highly recommend this app.

Great idea, Poor execution.

Don't be fooled, this is simply the iPad app repackaged. The sticky notes default to inking rather than text... as if inking with the trackpad has ever worked for anyone! All of the buttons are way too small and clearly the iPad buttons with no scaling adjustments. There is no secondary click option for any menus as would be intuitive and I found this particularly fustrating with actions not being where you would expect. This app is a great idea, all of the features are brilliant and with a little more effort could be a do-it-all app - but in its current state it's absolutely unuseable.

Change the new post-it inking toolbar to a prominant colour selector and default to typing. Add an easy option for bold and underlined text in this area too. Make it easier to create and view boards. Mac users are 'pro' and are likely to want to take advantage of boards.

Like I said, brilliant idea but sadly only half-baked.

Thank you for the review and the feedback! Our team would love to hear more if you are willing to send a note with some of this same detail to postitapp@mmm.com.

Post-it® App Team

Its a very basic app

The app is great if you want to visulise basic info and brainstorm. It would be great if you could go a step further and link notes on boards and do free hand sketching like you can on a whiteboard to join similar data sets etc....

Do you need help organising your study time before important exams?

SQA's My Study Plan app will automatically create your own personalised study plan based on your exam times, their importance and when you want to study.

Once the study plan is generated you can view and edit it to customise it further to meet your needs. You can then share your plan as a printable calendar or list.
You can track study progress using the study timer and get optional reminders on the days you plan to study.

The app is ideal for learners of all ages from school pupils and college students to adult learners.

Key features are:
- Adding subjects and exams
- Importing exams from SQA MyExams (you will need v1.5 of the MyExams app)
- Setting your preferred study period for each subject
- Prioritisation of subjects
- Setting the times when you want to study
- Automatic generation of study plan based on your preferences
- Editing your plan
- Share your plan
- Print your plan as a calendar or list
- Study reminders

We recommend downloading the latest version (v1.5) of the SQA MyExam app so that you can import your exams from your exam timetable.

SQA (Scottish Qualification Authority) is the national accreditation and awarding body in Scotland.

Needs work

1 - I have work and I use a rota meaning one week I might be able to study 6hrs on Monday but the next week I can only study for 2hrs. Adding in each week as a separate block is very time consuming, there must be an easier way.
2 - This week Im meant to be studying History for 10hrs, English for 9hrs and Maths for 1hr 30mins. This is 3 out of my 5 subjects. I think the programming needs to be better as I'm also meant to be doing 3hrs 30mins of History just on Monday which to me seems slightly ridiculous. I would prefer to be doing 2hrs per subject Max per session - I did tell the app this but it hasn't taken it into account at all.

Apart from those 2 points it's an ok app, it's a good idea just not executed well. I would recomendé the get revising app more.

Great app - with a couples of minor annoyances

This app is great, it helps you to plan your revision so you can see exactly what you need to do on the day and you can get on with it. There is a timer so you can set a target as to how much revision you are planning to do before your exams and you use the timer while you revise.

A couple of things that would be welcome if added:
* Undoing time - it is very annoying accidentally starting the timer for the wrong subject as it doesn't clearly state what subject you are starting the timer for on the timer section. This should be labelled correctly and should allow manual altering of a timer (taking off time and adding it on)

* Voluntary revision timer section - if I have spare time I would like to revise in, I cannot start the timer on the app for any subject that isn't planned for that specific day. Extra revision timers should be accessible from within the app so the revision time I complete is recorded.

* An (optional) account - this would allow us to use the same timetable on more than one device at the same time, such as on a phone and iPad so there isn't a need to have your phone on you all the time.

Besides this, great app, and would recommend to anybody in need of starting revision of any kind. This will be the support you need to start revision, and is beneficial to anyone GCSE standard and above. This app has increased my chances of getting A*s, and I promise I'm not sponsored to say this.

Great... when it actually works

This app has helped me a lot because I can track what I'm doing and don't need to follow a strict timetable.
Only problem is that it just doesn't work.
For some reason it wouldn't automatically give me study time for April and then when I tried to manually write it in it changed every session to biology and suddenly wouldn't let me add any more of certain subjects for no reason.
I wish it worked better because it is really good.
I also wish that it counted up how many hours I've spent on each subject so that I could tell where I needed more but it is a free app so I can't expect everything.

Assessments can be stressful so encourage your child to take breaks. Hour long revision sessions with short regular breaks of 10 minutes can be effective for children.

They may prefer to complete each task and then build in a break rather than stick to definite time slots. It is the quality of studying which is important.

Ask your child how you can best support them with studying. They may find it useful for you to read through revision notes with them. Alternatively, asking them what they have learned in their revision may be helpful.
