Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with
the relevant questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any
amendments made at the standardisation events which all associates participate in and is
the scheme which was used by them in this examination. The standardisation process
ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’ responses to questions and that every
associate understands and applies it in the same correct way.
As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students’ scripts.
Alternative answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for.
If, after the standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not
been raised they are required to refer these to the Lead Assessment Writer.
It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further
developed and expanded on the basis of students’ reactions to a particular paper.
Assumptions about future mark schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be
avoided; whilst the guiding principles of assessment remain constant, details will change,
depending on the content of a particular examination paper.
Further copies of this mark scheme are available from aqa.org.uk

Glossary for Mark Schemes
GCSE examinations are marked in such a way as to award positive achievement wherever
possible. Thus, for GCSE Mathematics papers, marks are awarded under various
categories.
If a student uses a method which is not explicitly covered by the mark scheme the same
principles of marking should be applied. Credit should be given to any valid methods.
Examiners should seek advice from their senior examiner if in any doubt.
M Method marks are awarded for a correct method
which could lead to a correct answer.
M dep A method mark dependent on a previous method
mark being awarded.
A Accuracy marks are awarded when following on from
a correct method. It is not necessary to always see
the method. This can be implied.
B Marks awarded independent of method.
B dep A mark that can only be awarded if a previous
independent mark has been awarded.
ft Follow through marks. Marks awarded following a
mistake in an earlier step.
SC Special case. Marks awarded within the scheme
for a common misinterpretation which has some
mathematical worth.
