The May/June series is Cambridge's principal examination window, sat simultaneously by students in over 160 countries. Papers are administered in multiple time zones, which is why each paper typically appears in two or three variants (v1, v2, v3) — each variant is equivalent in syllabus coverage and difficulty, set by the same chief examiner.
Cambridge filenames follow a consistent pattern: `9694_[type]_[paper][variant]_s14`. The paper number indicates which component of the syllabus is being examined (e.g., Paper 2 = structured questions), while the variant number (1, 2, or 3) indicates the time zone administration. To find matching question paper and mark scheme pairs, match the last two digits — for example, `9694_qp_42` pairs with `9694_ms_42`.
Time management within the exam is as important as subject knowledge. When practising with this paper, track how long you spend per question and compare it to the marks allocated. If you're spending disproportionate time on low-mark questions, that's a technique issue that past paper practice under timed conditions will fix. The examiner report highlights which questions were poorly done by the cohort — if you also struggled with those questions, it confirms they need targeted attention.
Questions, answered.
This session includes 11 question papers and 12 mark schemes, plus 2 additional resources (examiner reports, grade thresholds, etc.). All files are the official papers published by Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE).
Match by paper number and variant — the last two digits of the filename. For example, 9694_qp_42 (Question Paper, Paper 4, Variant 2) matches with 9694_ms_42 (Mark Scheme, Paper 4, Variant 2). Session codes: s = May/June, w = Oct/Nov, m = Feb/March.
Cambridge administers different variants of the same paper in different time zones to prevent paper leaks. Variant 1, 2, and 3 are equivalent in difficulty and syllabus coverage — you can practise with any variant regardless of your region.
Yes, these are the official past examination papers published by Cambridge Assessment International Education (CAIE). They are the same papers that were sat by students in the 2014 May-June examination session worldwide.
