If one subject is weaker
Do not automatically abandon it or let it consume the entire plan. Set a minimum viable chapter set, protect high-confidence work in stronger subjects, and use full papers to measure whether extra weak-subject time is converting into marks.
- Choose foundational chapters with broad dependencies
- Use short diagnostic blocks before full papers
- Re-evaluate with submitted subject scores
A repeatable weekly loop
Study concepts, practise a small mixed set, complete a timed subject block, and periodically take a full paper. Record common mistakes such as unit errors, diagram misreads, sign mistakes and premature guessing.

Frequently asked questions
Are these original IAT mocks?
No. The current timed inventory consists of nine previous-paper simulations. Original mock count is zero.
How is the public inventory verified?
The loader requires each stored question to have a valid subject, four option keys, an official answer and a non-empty solution. Paper-level review limitations are reported separately.
Are answers or solutions exposed for SEO?
No. Public pages use counts, topic labels and workflow descriptions only. Question and solution payloads remain in the login-protected attempt and review routes.
