Using UKMT Papers for Maths Practice

UKMT challenge papers are useful for students who enjoy non-routine problems and want to improve mathematical reasoning. They are particularly good preparation for selective sixth-form entrance tests because they reward flexible thinking rather than routine repetition.

Intermediate Challenge and Pink Kangaroo

The Intermediate Mathematical Challenge is aimed at secondary-school students and provides short, demanding multiple-choice problems. Pink Kangaroo papers provide further challenge for qualifying students and are also excellent independent practice even when you are not entering the competition.
