I have seen specimen papers for CIE Mathematics but they are not available on internet. To my knowledge, although not sure about it, this year CIE Mathematics P1 and S1 will be workbook-style papers.

No specimen paper was published in the year 2010.

EVERY YEAR specimen papers are released but ALL specimen papers are NOT to be spread to the candidates. Some are ONLY for teachers and examiners.

I was under the impression specimen papers were only released when a change in format of the exam occured.

There are no specimen papers available on that site. You would think if ONLY teachers were allowed access they would be available on there.

By the way, I'm talking only about math here.

I think he means you answer in the paper. Like there will be space for you to answer right under the question.

I cant confirm if what he's saying is true though.

As I said earlier that some sample papers are not for students. They are for teachers and examiners as to just give them an idea about the level of questions coming in the paper. And by teachers I mean the ones who conduct workshops not the ones that teach you in schools. Anyways, just forget that. Ignorance is bliss.

Don't know about M1. I am NOT even sure about the P1 and S1 formats so just let it go.

I have seen some specimen papers but I wasn't allowed to borrow them, so sorry can't get those for you people.

I recently talked to my friends who gave their P1 paper, they told me that nothing had changed. I'm 99.9% sure about it.  ;)
Fidato appeared for the paper, he can be more sure about it.
