0580/27 Paper 2
Due to a security breach we required all candidates in Kuwait who sat the paper for 0580/22
to attend a re-sit examination in June 2014. Candidates outside Kuwait sat only the original
paper and were not involved in a re-sit.

0580/27 Paper 2 (Extended), maximum raw mark 70
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 May/June 2014 series for most IGCSE, GCE
Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level components and some Ordinary Level components.
