Grade 12 Physical Sciences past papers and memos
Practise physics and chemistry questions with careful units, signs and working. Match each paper with the correct year, session and memorandum before marking your answers.
Choose the right document
Select a year and examination session, then the paper number. Open the Question Paper to practise and its Memorandum to mark. Answer books and addenda appear where available. Use the language selector to match your examination language.
Plan around the 2026 NSC timetable →How do I find a matching memo?
Choose the same grade, subject, year, examination session, paper number and language. The document library groups related files where available.
Are all years and sessions available?
Availability varies. The library only shows documents that have been added; a missing paper or memo is not an unpublished document you can request early.
How should I practise?
Attempt a section first, compare it with the memo, identify the topic behind mistakes and repeat the questions later. Use the timer to practise within your available study time.
