, MARK SCHEME – AS GERMAN – 7661/2 – JUNE 2023
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 Examiner.
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.

Section A
Guidance on level of accuracy in translations into the target language
A successful translation
A successful translation is one which includes each element of the text to be translated and where there
is no omission or paraphrase.
Accuracy
All spellings must be correct, including the use of lower and upper case letters. However in German
both ‘new’ (post-1996) and ‘old’ spellings will be accepted, eg both Schifffahrt and Schiffahrt, and ‘ss’ will
be tolerated in any words normally spelt with ‘ß’.
Repeated errors
Where a candidate repeats the same error within a question, no further penalty will be imposed in
awarding the mark.
Alternative answers
Alternative answers offered by the candidate – even if one is in brackets – will be rejected unless both
answers are correct.
