Published

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and learners, to indicate the requirements of the
examination. However, we have not been able to adjust it to reflect the full range of answers that would
have been seen as a part of the normal moderation and marking process, and it does not necessarily contain
all the possible alternatives that might have arisen. Cambridge will not enter into discussions about the mark
scheme.

Published

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and learners, to indicate the requirements of the
examination. However, we have not been able to adjust it to reflect the full range of answers that would
have been seen as a part of the normal moderation and marking process, and it does not necessarily contain
all the possible alternatives that might have arisen. Cambridge will not enter into discussions about the mark
scheme.
