IGCSE Physical Education (0413) — real past-paper questions, marked by AI
IGCSE Physical Education (0413) is a single written paper, so every mark comes from short structured answers on anatomy and physiology, health, fitness and training, and the psychology of sport and skill acquisition. Command words like describe, explain and state expect a precise term — the named muscle, the correct energy system, the specific training principle — rather than a general sporting observation.
This hub holds 499 real 0413 questions from 15 papers set between 2023 and 2025. Anatomy and physiology is the most-examined topic, followed by health, fitness and training, then sport, society and culture and sport psychology. Type your answer and the AI examiner marks it point by point against the real Cambridge scheme, showing exactly which structured point your phrasing hit — the difference between naming a joint action and describing one.

How should I revise PE theory with past papers?
Work through the topic tags one at a time, starting with anatomy and physiology since it carries the most marks, then time yourself on a full paper.
Are these official Cambridge papers?
The questions are transcribed from real Cambridge papers and marked against the real mark schemes, which remain © Cambridge International. Cambridge Papers is an independent study tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by Cambridge.
