 INTRODUCTION

To enhance understanding of the standards of the HKDSE Examination, authentic samples of

candidates’ scripts in the 2020 examination are selected to form this set of exemplars which serve to
illustrate the typical performance standards at different levels.

There are four papers in this subject. This set of exemplars is selected from candidates’ scripts of
Paper 1 to illustrate the typical performance standards at different levels.

It is advisable to read this set of exemplars together with the question papers and the marking
schemes in order to understand the requirements of the questions and the marking criteria. The
question papers and the marking schemes are published in the 2020 HKDSE Question Papers (with
marking schemes and comments on candidates’ performance).
