About the STEP

The Sixth Term Examination Paper (STEP) is an advanced mathematics exam used by top universities, such as Cambridge, for admissions to mathematics-related courses. The exam is designed to test deep mathematical understanding and the ability to apply mathematical concepts to solve complex problems.
