History (8145) — November 2021 | AQA GCSE
All 39 AQA GCSE History (8145) papers from the November 2021 session are available on this page. You'll find 15 question papers and 15 mark schemes, along with 9 insert papers. Download any file instantly — these are the same official papers sat by students worldwide in 2021.
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 encode the tier directly: H = Higher, F = Foundation. For tiered subjects, always download the tier you are entered for. Mark schemes (`W-MS`) for AQA match exactly to their QP counterpart by paper number and tier — e.g., `AQA-81452F-QP` pairs with `AQA-81452F-W-MS`.
For maximum revision benefit, attempt the question paper under strict exam conditions before opening the mark scheme — allocate the same time per mark as in the real paper, then self-assess. Record every mark lost and categorise each error: was it a knowledge gap, a misread question, or a method error? Targeted review of these categories is far more efficient than re-reading notes.
Questions, answered.
This session includes 15 question papers and 15 mark schemes, plus 9 other resources. 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-81451H-QP matches with AQA-81451H-W-MS.
H = Higher tier (targeting grades 9-4) and F = Foundation tier (targeting grades 5-1). Make sure you download papers for your entered tier. The paper number appears before the tier letter — so 81451H means Paper 1 Higher, 81452F means Paper 2 Foundation.
Yes, these are the official past examination papers from AQA. They are the same papers that were sat by students in the November 2021 exam session.
