The page includes a variety of mock types: pre-mocks (earlier in the year), mocks (closer to exam date), joint Form 4 exams, county trials, national school exams and post-mocks.

Where can I find papers for a specific county or subject?

Use the year links and site search or browse by category on KCSE Revision to find papers filtered by county or subject.

The page links to each year's collection — check the year’s page for bulk download options or individual paper links depending on how that year was uploaded.

How should students use mock papers to improve scores?

Simulate exam conditions by timing yourself, mark work using the marking scheme, analyse mistakes to identify weak topics, and track progress over multiple mocks.

Do older mocks still help with KCSE preparation?

Yes — older mocks help with exam technique, problem types and revision; however, combine them with recent mocks to capture current exam trends and syllabus changes.

What if a mock paper I need doesn’t include a marking scheme?

Some papers may not include marking schemes; in such cases, look for the scheme elsewhere on the site (KNEC past papers area) or use teacher resources to self-mark where possible.

Are national schools exam papers included on this page?

KCSE County Mocks by Year and Exam Set

Browse KCSE county mocks using the organised collection below. Follow the subject, learning-area or exam-set links to find the relevant source materials.

Back to all exam collections

Choose a year, then a county or named exam set, then the subject. Original set names are retained; school or joint-exam names are not presented as county names.

File pairings follow source labels and the same set; contents have not all been checked. Shared marking packs are labelled as shared. Practice papers are not relabelled as official national assessments.

Using KCSE county mocks

Choose the original paper or set label before opening a file. When an answer file is available, compare its source and paper number with your question paper. Keep shared marking packs separate from subject-specific answers.

Choosing KCSE county mocks

The archive links to 306 existing county, school and joint-examination collections. Start with the original year, then choose the named county or exam set and browse its subject labels. A school or joint-exam name remains an exam-set label; it is not renamed as a county. The year directories show the subject labels found on each source page and link to that existing collection. Counts beside subjects describe file links, not complete pairs of papers and marking schemes. Some archive pages combine more than one year, and those labels remain visible. Choose the correct subject and paper number before using an answer file. Keep a question paper with a marking scheme from the same set where one is available. Different counties and school groups may use similar filenames, so the original set name is an important part of selecting the appropriate resource.

For official assessment information, consult KNEC guidance and the instructions provided by your school.
