How it works

We read 5 past TAX2601 papers and rank every topic by how often it's asked and for how many marks. The oldest paper is free in full, plus the first 5 questions of every other. R79 until 28 February 2027 opens the rest, with no auto-renewal. Each paper has a thread; we don’t publish answers.

Tax rates and thresholds change every year. Use the tables for your exam year, not the ones in these papers.
