This page contains all 72 available files for AQA A Level History (7041) — November 2020. That includes 28 question papers and 44 mark schemes. Every file is the official document published by AQA and is free to download as a PDF — no account or payment required.
The November series is a resit opportunity for AQA GCSE, available only to a limited number of subjects including Mathematics, English Language, and English Literature. It is primarily used by students who did not achieve their target grade in the June sitting.
AQA filenames follow the pattern `AQA-[SPECCODE]-[TYPE]-[SESSION]`. The specification code includes the subject code and paper/tier — for example, `AQA-70411H-QP-JUN20` means Paper 1 Higher tier Question Paper from June 2020. The 'H' denotes Higher tier (targeting grades 9–4) and 'F' Foundation tier (grades 5–1). Matching QP and mark scheme: replace `QP` with `W-MS` and keep the rest of the filename identical.
Cambridge AQA mark schemes often accept multiple equivalent responses. Look for phrasing like 'allow', 'accept', 'credit', and 'do not credit' — these mark the boundaries between full marks, partial credit, and zero. Understanding the mark scheme logic trains you to write answers that hit every marking point, not just the general idea.
Questions, answered.
This session includes 28 question papers and 44 mark schemes. All files are official AQA exam papers.
Match by paper number and tier. QP (Question Paper) files pair with W-MS (Mark Scheme) files that have the same paper number and tier suffix. For example, AQA-70411H-QP matches with AQA-70411H-W-MS.
Yes, these are the official past examination papers from AQA. They are the same papers that were sat by students in the November 2020 exam session.
