All 8CH0 past papers by session
Each link opens that paper’s own page. The codes show which variants or versions it holds.
Past paper content © Pearson Education Ltd. The official specification and the latest papers are on the Pearson Edexcel AS and A Level Chemistry (2015) page. If a file says it isn’t in the collection yet, it simply hasn’t been added.
Prefer Practice by Topic?
Full papers are best for timing and exam technique. For one weak topic at a time, use the AS Level topic-wise resources or the resource search. Other boards and qualifications are on the full list of past papers.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Edexcel AS Level Chemistry past papers are here?
Pearson Edexcel GCE AS Level Chemistry (8CH0) question papers and mark schemes from Summer 2016 to Summer 2025, plus the October 2020 and November 2021 series, wherever the collection has them. A paper whose question paper or mark scheme is missing says so on its own page.
What are Paper 1 and Paper 2?
As printed on the papers: Paper 1 is Core Inorganic and Physical Chemistry and Paper 2 is Core Organic and Physical Chemistry. Each allows 1 hour 30 minutes.
Is this the Edexcel International A Level?
No. These are the UK GCE papers: 9CH0 for A Level and 8CH0 for AS Level. Edexcel’s International A Level has different papers and codes, and is not on the site yet.
Where are the A Level papers?
A Level Chemistry has its own code, 9CH0, and its own past papers page on this site.
Why do some sessions show only a mark scheme or only a question paper?
Not every file for every session is in the collection. The paper page says plainly which file is missing instead of leaving a dead link. Summer 2020, for example, has question papers only.
Why is there a short wait before a paper opens?
Papers are free to use. The short countdown before each file opens helps keep the site running while the files load.
