This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the<br>standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in<br>this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students\u2019<br>responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way.<br>As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students\u2019 scripts. Alternative<br>answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for. If, after the<br>standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not been raised they are<br>required to refer these to the Lead Examiner.<br>It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and<br>expanded on the basis of students\u2019 reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark<br>schemes on the basis of one year\u2019s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of<br>assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination<br>paper.<br>Further copies of this mark scheme are available from aqa.org.uk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Copyright information<br>AQA retains the copyright on all its publications.
