About these Combined Science papers
This is every Cambridge IGCSE Combined Science (0653) question paper on file: 650 papers from 58 sittings, 2002 to 2026. 639 of them have a mark scheme beside them. The newest sitting here is May/June 2026.
Combined Science is examined in Feb/March, May/June and Oct/Nov. It is made up of Paper 1, Paper 2, Paper 3, Paper 4, Paper 5 and Paper 6.
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. To revise a topic before trying a paper, there is Combined Science revision by topic, in 95 topics, each with questions and answers.
