Cambridge International A-level Biology 9700: June 2024
Everything Cambridge International publishes for the June 2024 series of 9700: 12 files, grouped by the component they belong to. The board hosts every one of them; nothing on this page is a copy.
Checked against Cambridge International’s own listing on 31 August 2026.
Variant 1 of each paper. Cambridge sits several variants of the same paper in different zones and publishes one of them, which is why every file below is numbered 11, 21, 31, 41 or 51 rather than 1 to 5.
Cambridge publishes far less of its archive than the other four boards here: on the day this list was checked its public page carried one examined series, June 2024, variant 1 of each paper, together with the 2022 specimen papers, and Cambridge's own words for that are “This is only a selection of our papers. Registered Cambridge International Schools can access a wide range of teaching and learning materials and examination resources through our School Support Hub.” The rest is in the School Support Hub, which needs a registered centre's login, so a Cambridge student without one has a single sat paper per component and not nine years of them.

Cambridge is changing the layout and formatting of its question papers from March 2026 for accessibility, and says the assessment content, demand and types of questions will not change. A 2024 paper is the right practice and the wrong shape.

The series either side
2022 specimen papers, the series before. June 2024 is the most recent series Cambridge International lists for 9700.
Every sitting of 9700 examines the same structure; what changes is the questions. The 9700 past papers page has the whole list of series, and the Cambridge International Biology specification map says which headings this library teaches.
