Frequently Asked Questions
What makes GCSE Maths Lab different to other revision sites?
GCSE Maths Lab focuses on realistic exam-style questions, mobile-friendly design, and adaptive mixed-topic practice that targets your weaker areas. You can also track your progress, earn achievements, and build streaks as you study.
How does the mixed topic practice section work?
Any topic you’ve started but haven’t completed to 100% will feed questions into your mixed topic practice. It’s a smart way to focus on areas that still need improvement.
What exam board should I be studying to use the site?
The website is designed to support all major exam boards — Edexcel, AQA, and OCR. The question styles and topics align closely with the GCSE specifications for each.
Is GCSE Maths Lab free to use?

How many questions are in each topic quiz?
Each topic quiz contains 6 exam-style questions. This keeps revision focused and manageable, while still giving you enough practice to build confidence in the topic.

Your progress is tracked as you answer quiz questions correctly, so you can clearly see which topics you’ve started and which ones you’ve completed. This makes it easier to stay motivated and focus on the areas that still need work.
