FURTHER MATH 3

General Guidelines

1 Penalties of three types are applied to candidates' work as follows:

Slips - numerical slips S(-1)

Blunders - mathematical errors B(-3)

Misreading - if not serious M(-1)

Serious blunder or omission or misreading which oversimplifies:

- award the attempt mark only.

Attempt marks are awarded as follows: 5 (att 2).

2 The marking scheme shows one correct solution to each question.

In many cases there are other equally valid methods.
