AQA A Level Mathematics Paper 2 2025 Mark Scheme

Get the official AQA A-Level Mathematics Paper 2 mark scheme from the June 2025 series (7357/2). This is the final v1.0 examiner-approved document used during marking and standardisation, ensuring consistent grading across all candidates.

The mark scheme includes full worked solutions, method (M), accuracy (A), reasoning (R), and explanation (E) marks, along with detailed examiner guidance. As outlined in the instructions (*page 3*), credit is awarded for valid alternative methods, and follow-through (FT) marking allows students to earn marks even when earlier steps are incorrect.

It covers all 19 questions from the paper, including both Pure and Mechanics sections. For example, Section A focuses on algebra, trigonometry, calculus, and numerical methods such as the trapezium rule (*pages 6–10*), while Section B assesses mechanics topics including forces, projectiles, moments, and vector motion (*pages 15–24*).

Use this mark scheme to understand exactly how marks are awarded, identify where method marks are gained or lost, and improve exam technique. It is essential for self-marking, revision, and mastering AQA’s assessment objectives (AO1, AO2, AO3), which are clearly outlined in the document (*page 4*).

Updated for the 2025/2026 academic year, optimised for mobile and desktop, and ideal for pairing with the AQA 7357/2 June 2025 question paper for full exam practice.

This document is designed for A-Level Mathematics students preparing for the 2026 exam series, including Year 13 candidates, retake students aiming for A/A*, and independent learners. It is especially useful for students studying both Pure and Mechanics components of AQA Mathematics.

It is also an essential resource for teachers, tutors, and revision-course providers delivering AQA 7357, enabling accurate mock marking, standardisation training, and structured feedback. Parents supporting home study can use it to understand how marks are awarded and track progress effectively.
