STEP Past Papers
STEP contains some truly wonderful questions to test your understanding of a topic (or a mixture of topics). However, they are designed to be very hard indeed to test the very top end of A Level candidates, so don't get discouraged if you can't do a question straight away; keep coming back to it and mulling it over in your mind.
It is advised that the best place to start is by taking a couple of papers and going straight to the solutions. See if you can figure out
- How the solution answers the question
- Any extra cases or subtleties that you may have overlooked which would have topped you getting all the marks
- How you should have thought of using that approach
The two Stephen Siklos booklets (above) are the best place to start.
