, MARK SCHEME – A-LEVEL BIBLICAL HEBREW – 7677/2 – JUNE 2023
Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with the relevant
questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the
standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in
this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students’
responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way.
As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students’ scripts. Alternative
answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for. If, after the
standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not been raised they are
required to refer these to the Lead Examiner.
It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and
expanded on the basis of students’ reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark
schemes on the basis of one year’s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of
assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination
paper.
Further copies of this mark scheme are available from aqa.org.uk
General Guidance
A high level of accuracy in written English is required at this level, and accurate spelling and
punctuation are important.
All answers must be written in English, with the following exceptions, which may be written in Biblical
Hebrew where relevant:
- roots
- individual Hebrew letters
- words or short phrases from the text, if the Hebrew is necessary for a complete illustration of the
answer.
Answers in Biblical Hebrew must be written using the ‘block’ system.
Transliteration of Biblical Hebrew words is only acceptable for proper nouns – all other words must be
translated into English.
