June 2022 Shadow Paper mark scheme

Please note that this mark scheme is not the one used by
examiners for making scripts. It is intended more as a guide,
indicating where marks are given for correct answers. As
such, it may not show follow-through marks (marks that are
awarded despite errors being made) or special cases.
It should also be noted that for many questions, there may
be alternative methods of finding correct solutions that are
not shown here – they will be covered in the formal mark
scheme from the original paper.
This document is intended for guidance only and may differ
significantly from the examiners’ final mark scheme for the
original paper, which was published in August 2022.

Guidance on the use of codes within this document

M1 – method mark. This mark is generally given for an appropriate

method in the context of the question. This mark is given for showing
your working and may be awarded even if working is incorrect.

A1 – accuracy mark. This mark is generally given for a correct answer

following correct working.

B1 – working mark. This mark is usually given when working and the
answer cannot easily be separated.

Some questions require all working to be shown; in such questions, no

marks will be given for an answer with no working (even if it is a
correct answer).
