Questions parents ask

Are these past year papers (TYS) or school exam papers?

They're practice papers in the same style as past year papers and school exam papers: the same kinds of questions, marks and timing. They aren't copies of any school's papers or of SEAB's past year papers, which belong to them. Each paper is newly made, with numbers that change every time, so you can keep practising after you've finished your school's papers and the TYS.

Do the papers come with answers?

Yes. Every paper comes with the answers and full worked solutions, step by step, the way markers expect the working to be written.

How are the papers marked?

Your answers are marked as soon as you hand the paper in. You see the full working for every question, which marks you lost, and why. If your final answer is wrong but your working is right, you can tick the method marks your working earns, like a real marker would.

What happens after a paper?

MugCorner shows which question types cost you marks, and makes a follow-up paper on exactly those. Each chapter also has guided notes and topical practice with step-by-step help.

Is it free?

Everything is free during early access. After that, a free account still gets 2 papers a month, with topical practice and notes. MugCorner Plus gives unlimited papers and follow-up papers.
