While Colourpoint Educational and the author have taken every care in its production, we are not able to guarantee that it is completely error-free. Additionally, while the mark scheme has been written to closely match the CCEA specification, it is the responsibility of each candidate to satisfy themselves that they have fully met the requirements of the CCEA specification prior to sitting an exam set by that body. For this reason, and because specifications change with time, we strongly advise every candidate to avail of a qualified teacher and to check the contents of the most recent specification for themselves prior to the exam.
