How the prediction is made
Each predicted paper is assembled from two real inputs: the exam’s published paper structure — its sections, marks, question types and timing — and the official syllabus topic list. Questions are written slot-by-slot to match that blueprint and to read in the exam’s own style, then checked so every multiple-choice item is well-formed and the marks add up. This is structured, exam-style revision material — not a forecast of the exact questions, and it never uses leaked or copyrighted past papers.
