A Level and GCSE exams have been taking place for weeks at schools, sixth forms and colleges across the country.
Many students have spent months revising and preparing for tests, hoping to get the best grades possible. But after rumours of a leak, some A Level students have been left disappointed.
An AQA Organic and Physical Chemistry A Level paper took place on Monday morning (June 20).

Many of those who sat the paper have now taken to Twitter to complain, after seeing photos circulating on Snapchat and TikTok, allegedly of people sharing and selling the exam. Some say the images have been doing the rounds for as long as two weeks.
Ella Kate Warren said: "AQA A level chemistry paper 2 was leaked, students include myself can recognise questions from todays paper so it’s confirmed it was leaked as images were circulating before this morning".
Paul Gill said: "AQA parent here! Daughter having a meltdown after discovering a level chemistry paper 2 was leaked! What are your plans, please? Answer required ASAP", while Ahmed said: "The questions on the leaked screenshots were the exact ones that came up in today's paper."
Responding to the tweets, AQA said: "We investigate each case like this and report fraud to the police. Our advice to students is to steer clear, as trying to buy/view even a fake paper could get them in a lot of trouble."
An AQA spokesperson told the ECHO: “We’re very disappointed to hear that some students may have seen our A-level Chemistry paper 2 before the exam. Our exams integrity team is investigating and will take any action necessary, including working with the police.
“We realise students might be concerned, but we’d like to reassure them that there are lots of things we can do to make sure no-one has an unfair advantage - which could include monitoring for any students with suspicious performance on this paper.”
