MARK SCHEME for the November 2005 question paper

9702 PHYSICS
9702/04

Core

maximum raw mark 60

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the
requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were initially
instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place
at an Examiners meeting before marking began. Any substantial changes to the mark
scheme that arose from these discussions will be recorded in the published Report on the
Examination.
All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in
candidates scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills
demonstrated.
Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the Report on the
Examination.
The minimum marks in these components needed for various grades were previously
published with these mark schemes, but are now instead included in the Report on the
Examination for this session.

CIE will not enter into discussion or correspondence in connection with these mark
schemes.

CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the November 2005 question papers for most IGCSE
and GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary
Level syllabuses.
