    Published

    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.

    bestexamhelp.com
    Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for
    Teachers.

    Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

    Cambridge International is publishing the mark schemes for the October/November 2017 series for most
    Cambridge IGCSE®, Cambridge International A and AS Level components and some Cambridge O Level
    components.
