Yeah you should never be dependant upon marking scheme , see and try to develop knowledge I was also disheartened by the points which were in the ms and what I wrote was different but If your points are absolutely logical then the Examiners will mark as CIE does not want you to ratify everything but it needs you to use your knowledge and understanding. :) so be confident

What I am told about is this that we have to give positive as well as negative points of two statements and in the end conclude whether which statement in more advantageous ,!!!!!

Thanks and plz help me with pakistan studies 2tips people,!!!!!!!!!!!!
AOA!
Go through the marking schemes of past papers: they are really helpful, trust me. :)
And remember, DO NOT FORGET to keep your answers confined only to the given space/ lines: do not go beyond them nor write in the margins.
