The UPMSP Intermediate Arabic - Code 125 study guide has 8 sections and about 2,014 words.
01Prose (Nasr): theme, author context and rhetorical style
Prose (Nasr) tests how well you can read a prescribed Arabic passage and answer on it: the central idea, the author behind it, the style it is written in, and the exact meaning of words as the passage uses them. Marks are lost less from ignorance of Arabic than from answering the wrong question.
283 words, about 1 min02Poetry (Shi'r): form, imagery and the poet's context
Poetry questions reward precision about form before interpretation. Every verse (bayt) has two halves, the sadr and the ajuz, and the poem's rhyme is the qafiyah, whose final consonant is the rawi.
249 words, about 1 min03Nahw: i'rab, sentence structure and particles
Nahw questions are mechanical: identify the word, name its grammatical role, and give its case and the sign of that case. The examiner wants i'rab you can defend, so always name the 'amil (governing factor).
264 words, about 1 min04Sarf: verb forms, derived nouns and root patterns
Sarf asks how words are built. From one three-letter root Arabic generates a whole family of forms, and the paper tests whether you can move between them accurately.
244 words, about 1 min05Translation: Arabic to Hindi/Urdu and back
Translation here is a grammar test in disguise. You are marked on accuracy of meaning, natural sentence structure in the target language, and correct case endings when you write Arabic.
249 words, about 1 min06Composition: letters, paragraphs and applied writing
Composition marks come from format and connectors, not from ambitious vocabulary. Learn one clean pattern for each text type and reuse it.
248 words, about 1 min07Reading comprehension and vocabulary: the unseen passage
The unseen passage tests speed and vocabulary, not memory. Read the questions first, then the passage, so you know what to look for.
246 words, about 1 min08History of Arabic literature: periods, genres and figures
History questions are name-and-period questions with a reason attached. For every figure, know the period, the genre and the specific contribution.
