📌 FAQs About IGCSE Chemistry Past Papers

1. What is the difference between Paper 2 and Paper 4 in IGCSE Chemistry?
Paper 2 is the Multiple Choice (Extended) paper, while Paper 4 is the Theory (Extended) paper. Paper 2 tests conceptual understanding in a fast-paced format, while Paper 4 requires detailed written responses and deeper analysis.

2. How to practice for Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical)?
Start by reviewing past Paper 6 exams and mark schemes. Focus on experimental design, safety precautions, data interpretation, and drawing scientific conclusions. Practice sketching apparatus and describing methods clearly.

3. Where can I find IGCSE Chemistry past paper mark schemes?
Mark schemes are included in our resource table above. Click on the 📄 icon next to each paper to download both the exam paper and the mark scheme (MS) from reliable sources like XtremePapers and GCEGuide.

4. What’s the best way to prepare for Paper 4 (Theory, Extended)?
Master all topics from the Extended syllabus. Practice structured long-answer questions using past papers, focusing on accurate scientific vocabulary, units, and logical explanations.

5. Is Paper 6 easier than the Practical Test (Paper 5)?
Paper 6 can be less logistically demanding since it doesn’t require lab access, but it still tests practical understanding. It’s not necessarily easier—it just emphasizes theory-based practical skills.

6. How many years of past papers should I solve?
Ideally, aim to solve the last 5 years of May–June and Oct–Nov sessions. This gives you exposure to different question styles and topic emphasis across sessions.

7. Which IGCSE Chemistry Papers Should I Take?

If you are a Core student:
→ You will take Paper 1 (Multiple Choice Core), Paper 3 (Theory Core), and Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical).
If you are an Extended student:
→ You will take Paper 2 (Multiple Choice Extended), Paper 4 (Theory Extended), and Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical).

📝 Note: Always confirm your paper combination with your school or exam center, as options may vary depending on your registration.

8.What is Paper 5 in Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry?
Official Name: Practical Test (Laboratory-based assessment)

Who Takes It? This paper is typically taken by school-based candidates only. Private candidates cannot usually sit for Paper 5.

Why Is It Useful? Although not available to all, Paper 5 covers the same practical skills and experiments as Paper 6 (Alternative to Practical).
👉 That’s why practicing Paper 5 past papers is highly recommended — even for students taking Paper 6 — to improve your experimental understanding.

🧠 Tip: If you’re preparing for Paper 6, try solving Paper 5 past papers to deepen your knowledge of lab techniques and procedures.

9. What is the difference between Paper 5 and Paper 6 in IGCSE Chemistry?

Feature	Paper 5 – Practical Test	Paper 6 – Alternative to Practical
Format	Hands-on lab-based exam	Written exam on practical skills
Where it’s taken	In a school science lab	In an exam hall
Who takes it	School-based candidates only	All students, including private candidates
Content	Real experiments	Diagrams, data analysis, experimental design questions
Purpose	Assess actual lab skills	Assess understanding of lab techniques without doing experiments
