Instructions to Examiners
1 Give due credit to alternative treatments which are correct. Give marks for what is
correct; do not deduct marks because the attempt falls short of some ideal answer.
Where marks are to be deducted for particular errors specific instructions are given
in the marking scheme.
2 Do not deduct marks for poor written communication. Refer the script to the Awards
meeting if poor presentation forbids a proper assessment. In each paper candidates
may be awarded up to two marks for the Quality of Written Communication in cases
of required explanation or description. Use the following criteria to award marks:
2 marks: Candidates write legibly with accurate spelling, grammar and punctuation; the
answer containing information that bears some relevance to the question and
being organised clearly and coherently. The vocabulary should be appropriate
to the topic being examined.
1 mark: Candidates write with reasonably accurate spelling, grammar and punctuation;
the answer containing some information that bears some relevance to the
question and being reasonably well organised. Some of the vocabulary should
be appropriate to the topic being examined.
0 marks: Candidates who fail to reach the threshold for the award of one mark.
4 With regard to incorrect use of significant figures, normally two, three or four significant
figures will be acceptable. Exceptions to this rule occur if the data in the question is
given to, for example, five significant figures as in values of wavelength or frequency in
questions dealing with the Doppler effect, or in atomic data. In these cases up to two
further significant figures will be acceptable. The maximum penalty for an error in
significant figures is one mark per paper. When the penalty is imposed, indicate the
error in the script by SF and, in addition, write SF opposite the mark for that question
on the front cover of the paper to obviate imposing the penalty more than once per paper.
6 All other procedures, including the entering of marks, transferring marks to the front
cover and referrals of scripts (other than those mentioned above) will be clarified at
the standardising meeting of examiners.
