The Physics exam these papers prepare for

The papers were set for O-Level Physics (6091) in 2026 and SEC G3 Physics (K323) from 2027. SEAB's scheme of assessment is the same for both years:

Paper	Type	Time	Marks	Weighting
Paper 1	Multiple choice, 40 questions	1 h	40	30%
Paper 2	Structured and free response	1 h 45 min	80	50%
Paper 3	Practical	1 h 50 min	40	20%

In Paper 2, Section A carries 70 marks of structured questions, and the last two questions carry 20 marks, one of them data-based. Section B carries 10 marks: answer one of two questions.

How to use Physics papers well

Write the equation before the numbersThe paper prints no formula list, so a written equation shows the method even when the arithmetic slips.
Keep units in every lineA missing or wrong unit can cost the mark even when the working is right.
Treat the data-based question as its own skillIt asks you to read an unfamiliar graph or table. Practise a few in a row from different schools.

Questions about these papers

Are these Physics papers still good practice for the 2027 SEC?

Yes. The final O-Level is in October and November 2026, and from 2027 Sec 4 students sit the Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC). SEAB's 2027 G3 syllabus sets the same papers, marks and timings as the 2026 O-Level syllabus, so school papers set for the O-Level are close practice for G3. Check any topic you are unsure of against the current syllabus.

Do the Physics papers come with answers?

31 of the 34 come with answers, as a separate PDF so the paper can be tried first. 30 of those are the school's own answer key, and the rest were typed by an unofficial source, which the paper's page says because we have not checked them. Christ Church 2024 Sec 4 Paper 1, Christ Church 2024 Sec 4 Paper 2 and ACS (Barker Road) 2024 Sec 4 Paper 1 have no answers yet.

Does the Physics exam give a formula list?

No. The O-Level 6091 and SEC G3 K323 papers print no list of formulae, so every equation in the syllabus has to be memorised. Our free O-Level Physics formula sheet lists them by topic.

Are the papers free?

Yes. Enter your email and mobile once, and every paper on this site then downloads straight away on that device.
