About these General Paper papers

This is every Cambridge International AS & A Level General Paper (8001) question paper on file: 65 papers from 17 sittings, 2002 to 2018. 57 of them have a mark scheme beside them. It was last examined in 2018, so the papers are here for practice rather than for a coming exam.

A paper’s two-digit number is its paper and its variant: 42 is Paper 4, variant 2. Variants 1, 2 and 3 are the same paper set for different time zones, so any of them is fair practice.

Tap QP to open a question paper and MS for its mark scheme. They open in the browser, side by side if you like, and you can write on them.
