2027 Exam Question Types

For the 2026/2027 academic year exams, Egypt’s Ministry of Education has adopted a uniform question format for General Secondary and Baccalaureate students: 50% multiple-choice and 50% essay questions. Curricula and subjects vary according to the system and track. Second-year Baccalaureate students will sit exams in Arabic, the first foreign language, history, and one specialist subject of their choice from among four tracks. Financial literacy will not count toward their total score. They will also have more than one opportunity to sit exams, whereas third-year General Secondary students will have only one. The total score for the core subjects across the three General Secondary tracks is 320 points. The Science track includes Arabic, the first foreign language, physics, chemistry, and biology; the Mathematics track includes Arabic, the first foreign language, mathematics, chemistry, and physics; and the Literary track includes Arabic, the first foreign language, history, geography, and statistics. Students in all three tracks also take subjects that do not count toward the total score, including religious education, national education, and the second foreign language. They must meet specified passing grades in these three subjects.
