This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the
requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were
instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that
took place at an Examiners meeting before marking began, which would have
considered the acceptability of alternative answers.
Mark Schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the
Principal Examiner Report for Teachers.
Cambridge will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

Cambridge is publishing the mark schemes for the AQM Mock examination, 2015,
