As part of CIE’s continual commitment to maintaining best practice in assessment, CIE has begun to use
different variants of some question papers for our most popular assessments with extremely large and
widespread candidature, The question papers are closely related and the relationships between them have
been thoroughly established using our assessment expertise. All versions of the paper give assessment of
equal standard.

The content assessed by the examination papers and the type of questions are unchanged.

This change means that for this component there are now two variant Question Papers, Mark Schemes and
Principal Examiner’s Reports where previously there was only one. For any individual country, it is intended
that only one variant is used. This document contains both variants which will give all Centres access to
even more past examination material than is usually the case.

The diagram shows the relationship between the Question Papers, Mark Schemes and Principal Examiner’s
Reports.
