What AQA examiners say about Panjabi (Listening, Reading, Writing)

Verbatim quotes from 6 official AQA examiner reports (2022–2023). Every quote is attributable to a specific paper and session — these are the things AQA markers flag year after year.

Lifting language directly from the source text instead…

AO2 marks cannot be awarded for lifting language which does not match the phrasing of the bullet point. The students should avoid 'lifting' as the lifted language unnecessarily increases the word count and it is not eligible for AO3 marks.
AQA examiner, 7682/1 Paper 1, June 2022

Writing summaries over the 90-word limit

long summaries are marked for content or language as far as the first natural break, i.e. the end of the sentence or main clause between 90 and 100 words.
AQA examiner, 7682/1 Paper 1, June 2022

Writing the Section B or Paper 2 essay based on…

Essays where detailed planning had not occurred tended to be recycled versions of essays written previously, which may or may not be fully relevant to the question chosen.

Topics Students Struggle With Most

Vocabulary for cultural and social concepts in translation

7682 examiners flagged 'culture' as a problem word in both the 2022 Paper 3 translation (parts 2 and 14) and the 2023 Paper 1 translation. 'Heritage', 'identity', 'modernity', 'blind race', 'festive occasions', 'false displays', and 'to show off' were also listed as specific translation losses in 2022 and 2023.

Paper 1, Paper 3

Manipulating language in summaries instead of lifting

7682 examiners consistently noted that students who lifted text directly from the passage scored zero for AO3 and nothing for AO2 unless the lifted text happened to match the bullet point phrasing. This pattern was flagged in every Paper 1 and Paper 3 report across both years.

Paper 1, Paper 3

Answering both parts of two-part essay questions

7682 examiners noted in 2023 that 'the students mostly answered the first part of the question across each of the four topics and they only partially answered the second part of the questions.' The average performance on Paper 1 Section B was around 17% — a significant drop from the previous year.

Paper 1

Synonym retrieval from the passage text

7682 examiners reported that only 37% of students could find the synonym in questions 01.6 and 01.7 in 2022, and in 2023 the majority could not find synonyms for 'kablI]q' and 'jagrUkqa' because they found these words quite difficult. Writing words from outside the text cannot be credited.

Paper 1

Verb forms, gender, pronoun and adjective agreement in Panjabi writing

7682 examiners advised students in both 2022 and 2023 to 'double check their verb forms, pronouns, genders and adjectives for agreement in order to score good marks for AO3.' In 2023 the same advice was repeated: 'Some students did not check their verb forms, pronouns, genders and adjectives carefully for agreement hence lost marks for AO3.'

Paper 1, Paper 3

Translation accuracy for specific low-frequency Panjabi words

7682 examiners listed specific translation losses across the six ER documents: 'revolutionary' (kRAqIkarI), 'inspire/motivate', 'comrades' (mistranslated as 'commanders'), 'aspire/motivate' (prena), 'movement will be stained', 'often', 'especially', 'heritage', and 'democracy'. Only high ability students could translate 'heritage' and 'democracy' correctly.

Paper 1, Paper 3

Drawing five specific points from the reading passage for AO2 in Section B essays

7682 examiners noted that 'on average the students scored many fewer marks for AO2 than they did for AO4 in the essays written on research topics.' The average AO2 mark in Paper 3 Q6 was around four out of ten, suggesting students were not systematically extracting the required five points from the written source.

Paper 1, Paper 3

Listening comprehension questions requiring multiple details

7682 examiners noted across both years that students frequently gained only one mark on questions requiring two details: in 2022, only 11% scored two marks on Q04.2 (Paper 1) while around 60% scored one mark; in Paper 3 2022 only 39% could achieve two marks on Q02.6 because students struggled to identify 'vote of no confidence' as a second point.
