This is the official Cambridge mark scheme for Malay Foreign Language (0546) Mark Scheme 1 (Variant 3) from the 2026 May-June session.

Cambridge mark schemes use notation like "allow," "accept," and "do not credit" to define the boundary between full marks and zero.

This mark scheme corresponds to 0546_s26_qp_13. For maximum revision benefit, attempt the question paper under strict exam conditions first, then use this mark scheme to self-assess. Pay attention to the marking notation: "allow" means an alternative is accepted, "do not credit" means a specific phrasing is rejected even if technically correct, and "ORA" (or reverse argument) means the mark can also be earned with the opposite reasoning.

Cambridge mark schemes reward precise language. For Malay Foreign Language (0546), look for keywords the examiner requires — definitions must include specific terms (e.g., "per unit mass," "resultant"), and calculations must show working even if the final answer is correct. Understanding mark scheme conventions helps you write answers that hit every marking point, not just the general idea.
