Chinese as a Second Language 0523
May/June 2026 past papers and mark schemes

About this sitting

The May/June 2026 sitting of Cambridge IGCSE Chinese as a Second Language 0523 has 2 question papers, 3 mark schemes and the grade thresholds on file. Tap QP for a question paper or MS for its mark scheme. They open on the desk, where you can write on them.

Papers ending in 1, 2 and 3 (41, 42, 43) are the same paper set for different time zones, so any of them is fair practice.

The reference printed on each paper, and the names its files go by:

• 0523/1/M/J/26 0523_s26_qp_01 · 0523_s26_ms_1
• 0523/2/M/J/26 0523_s26_qp_02 · 0523_s26_ms_2
