THE STUDY ENGINE
A study engine that plans every day of your revision
It reads every point you track and settles three things each day: what comes back for review, how long until it comes back again, and how much new material fits beside it. The rules are fixed, and the plan says why each topic is on it.
Each review that goes well doubles the gap
A point starts on its status’s gap: 3 days at Learning, 7 at Practising, 10 at Covered and 14 at Exam Ready. Rate it hard and the gap is about half; easy, and it is about half as long again. Each review that goes well doubles it, up to 60 days. Choose Learning and it starts over.
Try it: answer the way you would at the end of a session, and see when the point comes back.

New chapters every day, not only reviews
Before reviews fill the day, today’s plan keeps a session of new material from your syllabus goal, so you keep moving through the course. On a short day the two take turns, and only reviews more than 45 days late go ahead of it.
You say where each topic stands
Finish a session and Momentum asks the status of each point you studied, with the date each answer brings it back. Choose a lower status and the gap starts over. A point back late is never guessed: you pick, or it keeps the status it has.
An exam changes the pace
Add a mock or a final and the chapters it covers. From 45 days before the paper its topics come first, and each keeps its status’s short gap until you mark it Covered. A Covered topic not seen in the paper’s last week gets one final check.
Practise straight from the plan
Most plan sessions link to their chapter’s past-paper questions in Topical, so a review can be real exam questions rather than rereading notes.
REVIEW BOARD
A revision planner that picks what to study today
Everything due across your subjects is ranked and cut to the minutes you have today: reviews, new material, homework and papers. Exam topics come first, then the most overdue, and a session of new material is kept in. What does not fit waits on the board, in plain view.
- Overdue and due reviews in one queue, each with its reason
- Hard topics come back sooner, and ones that go well less often
- A daily plan sized to the minutes you have
- Exam dates and finish goals decide what comes first

Automatic marking for written answers
Multiple choice already marks itself. Written answers are next. We are building marking that checks each answer on an exam builder paper against its mark scheme and shows where you lost marks.
Not in the app yet. For now, mark each answer against the scheme shown under it.

What are topical past papers?
Past exam questions sorted by syllabus topic instead of by exam session. Each one is cut from the real paper, filed under the chapter it tests and paired with its part of the mark scheme where one exists, so you can practise one topic across every year at once.
BY QUALIFICATION
Topical past papers for IGCSE, GCSE, O Level, A Level, IB and SPM
192,189 questions from real past papers, sorted by chapter. Pick your qualification, then your subject.

MOCK EXAM BUILDER
Build a timed mock exam from the chapters you choose
A full past paper tests the whole course. The builder makes one from only the chapters you have covered, at the length, time and difficulty you set. Sit it on screen or print it, then mark it against the real mark schemes.
- Choose a syllabus and the chapters to cover
- Pick how many questions, how long and how hard
- Sit it timed, untimed or open book
- Mark each question against its own scheme
- Print it with answer space, plus the mark scheme, as PDFs

HOW IT CONNECTS
Track, practise, find the gaps, review
Each part works alone. Together they tell you what to do next.
- Track what you have covered
Your syllabus arrives loaded. Mark each specification point as you learn it.
- Practise it
Answer a chapter’s past-paper questions with their mark schemes, or build a timed mock.
- Find the gaps
MCQ practice ranks your chapters weakest first and keeps every wrong answer until you get it right.
- Come back to it on time
Finish a plan session, log a study session or count a finished MCQ set. Each point gets its next review date, further off each time it goes well, and tomorrow’s plan picks from what is due.

QUESTIONS
Before you sign up
What is Momentum?
A free one-stop shop for exam revision for A Level, IGCSE, IB and SPM students. Most subjects arrive with your exam board's syllabus already loaded. Then everything is in one place: today's plan, a review board, past papers from nine exam boards, past-paper questions you can search by word, chapter or difficulty, a mock exam builder, self-marking multiple-choice practice, syllabus goals, an exam planner, a study log, grade targets, flashcards, tasks, notes, a calendar and your full history. Teachers get classes, tests, worksheets and syllabus plans.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Every account is free, with no limits on subjects, topics or papers.
Which exam boards does Momentum support?
Cambridge International AS & A Level and IGCSE, the IB Diploma Programme, Edexcel International A Level and International GCSE, the AQA, OCR and Edexcel A levels, all 42 College Board AP courses, the SAT and the ACT, and all 95 SPM subjects. You can also add any subject of your own and paste or import its syllabus.
Are the topical past papers real exam questions?
Yes. Each question is cut from a paper the exam board published and filed under the chapter it tests, with its part of the mark scheme where one exists. Multiple-choice questions show the answer letter. SPM papers have no schemes. Questions open when you sign in; the public pages only list what is there.
Which subjects have topical past papers?
Cambridge IGCSE, O Level and AS & A Level subjects such as Physics 9702, Chemistry 0620 and Mathematics 9709; Pearson Edexcel International GCSE and International A Level; AQA and OCR GCSE and A Level; the IB Diploma; and SPM Mathematics, Additional Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Science. Every board, subject and chapter is listed on the topical pages, free to browse without an account.
Do I need an account?
Not to browse. The topical pages list every board, subject and chapter. To open questions and mark schemes, save them, build a mock or track your syllabus, you need a free account.
How does Momentum decide what I revise each day?
From your syllabus. Each point you track has a status, and the status sets how soon it comes back: 3 days at Learning, up to 14 at Exam Ready, sooner if you rate it hard. Each review that goes well doubles the gap, up to 60 days, and choosing Learning starts it over. Today’s plan takes what is due, puts the topics of an exam within 45 days first, keeps a session for new material and fits the rest to the minutes you have. There is no guesswork: the same answers always give the same dates.
How does the exam builder work?
Pick a syllabus, the chapters you have covered and a length: quick, standard, a full paper or your own. Where questions are rated, pick Easy, Medium or Hard too. Momentum draws the questions. Sit the paper timed, untimed or open book, then mark it against the schemes. Save the paper and scheme as PDFs, with answer space under each question if you want it.
How is a question’s difficulty worked out?
From the exam board’s examiner report. An AI model reads what the report says about each question and rates it 1 to 5: questions most candidates got right are Easy, ones very few got right are Hard. With no report, the rating is estimated from the question and its mark scheme, and labelled as such. Most Cambridge A Level and IGCSE syllabuses are rated, plus some from Pearson Edexcel and OCR.
Does Momentum mark written answers for you?
Not yet. Automatic marking for written answers is what we are building next. Today, multiple-choice practice and teachers’ multiple-choice tests mark themselves. For written questions, the mark scheme sits under each one: enter your marks and Momentum totals the score and shows which chapters lost marks.
Can teachers use Momentum with a class?
Yes. Sign up as a teacher, create a class and share its join link. Set self-marking multiple-choice tests, or set any mock you build as a worksheet that students do on paper and hand in as photos. You mark it in Momentum and return it with feedback. Each class gets a syllabus plan, and printed papers carry your school’s name and logo. Schools can also start with a three-month pilot.
Does Momentum teach me the content?
Not like a textbook: there are no notes or videos. It has past papers from Cambridge, Edexcel, AQA, OCR, IB and SPM, filed by chapter and mostly with mark schemes, to practise a topic or build a timed mock. Keep your textbook, slides or revision site. Momentum tells you which to open tonight and what your last paper got wrong.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes. Momentum is a web app that works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet or laptop. There is nothing to install.
Can I use Momentum in Malay or Chinese?
Yes. Every screen is in English, Bahasa Melayu and 简体中文. Switch at the top of this page, even before you sign up. Syllabus content stays in the language your exam board printed it in, because that is the wording your exam uses.
Start with a chapter, or start with your syllabus.
