Topic Questions: 1.1 The binomial and Poisson distributions. — WST02 The Binomial and Poisson distributions
247 WST02 The Binomial and Poisson distributions topic questions are tagged to this syllabus point across 36 papers (2014–2026). Only the parts whose knowledge graph matches this syllabus statement are counted, and the table shows which parts of each question are involved.
Core finding
This The Binomial and Poisson distributions syllabus point appears in 36 WST02 papers across 2014–2026, contributing 247 topic questions and 604 marks. The most recent appearance is WST02/01 January 2026. That equals 79.9% of the 309 topic questions and 76.1% of the 794 marks tagged to The Binomial and Poisson distributions. Only parts tagged to this subtopic are counted, so a four-part question can contribute one item and one part's marks. The table lists every matching question, its tagged parts and marks, with a link back to the paper page. Sessions are newest first, so the statement can be traced back through the full paper history.
Topic questions by session
Newest sessions first. Parts and marks count only the parts tagged to this subtopic; “x of y parts” shows how much of the question is tagged elsewhere. Select the paper cell to open the matching question on the paper page, or use Go to Practice Hub to answer that exact question in the Interactive Practice Hub.

Topic question rules and edge cases
- How many topic questions cover this syllabus point?
- 108 question stems cover this subtopic across 36 papers, but only 247 tagged parts and 604 marks belong to it. Other parts of the same questions are assessed under different statements and are excluded from this page.
- Which papers include this subtopic?
- The table lists every matching session from 2014–2026. Each row links to the question anchor on the paper page, where the full paper context and practice entry point are available.
- Why can one question appear under several subtopics?
- The parts of one question can assess different syllabus statements. Each part is counted under its own subtopics, so the same question stem can appear on several subtopic pages while each page lists only the parts and marks tagged to that statement.
- Can I practise these questions with AI marking?
- Yes. Open a paper from the table and use the Interactive Practice Hub entry point. The page itself is static HTML so search engines and retrieval agents can read the full question list without executing JavaScript.
