AS & A Level Urdu (9676) — real past-paper questions, marked by AI
Two Urdu codes exist at A Level, so check which one your school entered you for before you start: this page covers 9676. Its four components run from reading comprehension and vocabulary work through to translation from English into Urdu and extended writing, with summary writing appearing as its own skill. The questions demand precision in vocabulary and register, and translation answers are judged phrase by phrase against the accepted renderings in the mark scheme.
The hub holds 70 real 9676 questions from 8 papers, covering the 2023 and 2024 sessions. Reading comprehension is the most-examined pattern here, with vocabulary in context, summary writing and translation from English to Urdu close behind — topics such as urban and rural life, food and drink, and sports also recur. Write your answer and the AI examiner marks it instantly against the real Cambridge mark scheme, showing which phrase held the mark and which one needs a closer match.
Work through the reading and vocabulary questions before tackling full translation and summary tasks — it is free, with no signup required.
