IGCSE English (0465) — real past-paper questions, marked by AI
Two IGCSE English (0465) papers sit on this hub: a reading paper and a listening paper, drawn from the 2024 session. Reading comprehension carries most of the marks here, tested through direct-response and note-making questions that ask you to locate, select and rephrase information from a passage rather than build an extended argument. The command words are exact — identify, explain, summarise in your own words — and the mark scheme rewards precise retrieval over general impressions.
This hub holds 46 real 0465 questions from 2 papers, with reading comprehension the most-examined topic by a clear margin, ahead of the smaller set of listening and note-making questions. Type your answer to any question and an AI examiner marks it instantly against the real Cambridge mark scheme, showing you exactly which piece of information you picked up and which you left on the page — useful when a single missed detail costs a mark.
It works well as a short, focused sweep before an exam: read the passage, answer, get the mark-by-mark feedback, move on. Free, with no signup.
