Fully Worked Solutions for the Cambridge STEP Examination (Cambridge STEP Series – Book 2)

Preparing for the Cambridge Sixth Term Examination Paper (STEP) is unlike preparing for any other mathematics exam. STEP does not reward memorisation, shortcuts, or routine techniques. It rewards depth of understanding, logical precision, and the ability to communicate mathematics clearly under pressure.

To support students aiming for Cambridge Mathematics and related degrees, I am pleased to announce the release of:

📘 Mastering STEP Mathematics Solution Guidebook: Complete Worked Solutions
(Cambridge STEP Series – Book 2)

This volume is the official companion to
Mastering STEP Mathematics – The Cambridge Exam Guidebook (Book 1) and provides fully worked, examiner-style solutions to the complete problem set in the main text.

Why a Dedicated STEP Solution Manual?

The STEP examination is not about getting an answer — it is about constructing a correct, rigorous, and well-presented mathematical argument.

Many students face the same challenges:

• “My final answer is correct, but would this earn full marks?”
• “How much detail does STEP expect?”
• “How should I structure a solution under exam conditions?”

This Solution Guidebook was written to answer exactly those questions.

It does not merely show final answers. Instead, it demonstrates:

• how to set up arguments cleanly,
• how to justify each step rigorously,
• how to present mathematics the way STEP examiners expect.

What This Solution Guidebook Contains

✔ Complete Worked Solutions (619+ pages)

Every problem from the main guidebook is solved in full, with no gaps, no hand-waving, and no reliance on unstated assumptions.

✔ Examiner-Style Mathematical Writing

Solutions are written to reflect:

• logical flow,
• clarity of exposition,
• appropriate level of justification,
• efficient but rigorous methods.

This trains students to write high-scoring STEP scripts, not just to solve problems privately.

✔ Multiple Insights Where Appropriate

Where a problem admits:

• alternative methods,
• shortcuts,
• elegant constructions,

these are discussed to build flexibility and mathematical maturity.

✔ Designed to Be Used Alongside the Main Book

This is not a standalone text.
It is designed to be used after attempting problems independently from the main Guidebook.

Who Is This Book For?

This Solution Guidebook is ideal for:

• Students applying to Cambridge Mathematics
• Applicants to Imperial, Warwick, UCL, and other STEP-requiring courses
• Self-studying students preparing without formal school support
• Teachers and mentors guiding STEP preparation
• Parents supporting mathematically strong students

If you are aiming for full-mark STEP solutions, this book provides the structure and clarity needed.
