Updated November 2026. These KCSE 2026 Physics Paper 2 (232/2) predicted questions are built from past-paper trends: we ranked the topics that past KCSE Physics Paper 2 papers test most often, then wrote original practice questions on them. They are not leaked, official or guaranteed questions, and this site is not linked to KNEC or KICD. Use them to practise the areas most likely to appear, alongside your full syllabus revision.
KCSE Physics 232/2 prediction: most commonly tested topics
The ranking below comes from the topic coverage of past KCSE papers, as summarised in our paper guides. It is a ranking, not an exact count: exam papers change every year.
| Rank | Topic | How it is usually tested |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Current electricity | Ohm’s law, series and parallel resistors, e.m.f. and internal resistance |
| 2 | Electromagnetic induction and transformers | Faraday’s and Lenz’s laws, transformer calculations, power transmission |
| 3 | Waves and light | Wave equation, reflection, refraction, total internal reflection |
| 4 | Thin lenses | Ray diagrams, lens formula, magnification |
| 5 | Radioactivity | Types of radiation, half-life, decay equations |
| 6 | Photoelectric effect and X-rays | Work function, threshold frequency |
| 7 | Electronics | Semiconductors, diodes, rectification |
| 8 | Magnetism and electrical energy | Magnetic effect of current, cost of electricity |
Free sample: 3 KCSE 2026 Physics Paper 2 predicted questions
Q1. Three resistors of 2 Ω, 3 Ω and 6 Ω are connected in parallel. Find the effective resistance.
Marking scheme
1/R = 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/6 = 1, so R = 1 Ω.
Q2. A transformer has 200 primary turns and 1,000 secondary turns. The primary voltage is 240 V. Find the secondary voltage.
Marking scheme
Vs = 240 × 1,000/200 = 1,200 V (step-up).
Q3. A wave has frequency 50 Hz and wavelength 6.8 m. Find its speed.
Marking scheme
v = fλ = 340 m/s.

Frequently asked questions
Are these the real KCSE 2026 Physics Paper 2 questions?
No. Nobody outside KNEC knows the real questions, and any site claiming a leak is lying or breaking the law. These are original practice questions written by the CBC Guide team, predicted from the topics past KCSE papers test most often.
Which topics come up most in KCSE Physics Paper 2 (232/2)?
The most commonly tested areas in past papers are Current electricity, Electromagnetic induction and transformers, Waves and light, Thin lenses. The full ranked list is in the table above.
How do I get the full set of predicted questions?
The first 3 questions are free. The remaining 16, each with a marking scheme, unlock with the KSh 20 Day Pass or the KSh 500 Monthly Pass, paid by M-Pesa. The passes do not auto-renew.
How should I use predicted questions in the last days before the exam?
Answer each question under time, mark it with the scheme, then go back to your notes for any topic you got wrong. Do not skip topics that are not on this list, because KNEC can test any part of the syllabus.
