S5 Mathematics (Extended Module 1) Final Examination 2010  2011

Marking Scheme
1. It is very important that all markers should adhere as closely as possible to the marking scheme. In many
cases, however, candidates will have obtained a correct answer by an alternative method not specified in
marking scheme. In general, a correct answer merits all the marks allocated to that part, unless a
particular method has been specified in the question. Marker should be patient in marking alternative
solutions not specified in the marking scheme.

2. In the marking scheme, marks are classified into the following three categories:
‘M’ marks awarded for correct methods being used.
‘A’ marks awarded for the accuracy of the answers;
Marks without ‘M’ or ‘A’ awarded for correctly completing a proof or arriving at an answer
given in a question.
In a question consisting of several parts each depending on the previous parts, ‘M’ marks should be
awarded to steps or methods correctly deduced from previous answers, even if these answers are erroneous.
However, ‘A’ marks for the corresponding answers should NOT be awarded (unless otherwise specified)

3. For the convenience of markers, the marking scheme was written as detailed as possible. However, it is
still likely that candidates would not present their solution in the same explicit manner. e.g. some steps
would either be omitted or stated implicitly. In such cases, markers should exercise their discretion in
marking candidates’ work. In general, marks for a certain step should be awarded if candidates’ solution
indicated that the relevant concept/technique had been used.

4. Use of notation different from those in the marking scheme should not be penalized.

5. In marking candidates’ work, the benefit of doubt should be given in the candidates’ favour.

6. Marks may be deducted for wrong units(u) or poor presentation (pp).

a. The symbol u  1 should be used to denote 1 mark deducted for u. At most deduct 1 mark for u in
Section A. Do not deduct any marks for u in Section B.
b. the symbol pp  1 should be used to denote 1 mark deducted for pp. At most deduct 1 mark for pp in
each of Section A and Section B. For similar pp, deduct 1 mark for the first time that it occurs. Do
not penalize candidates twice in the paper for the same pp.
c. At most deduct 1 mark in each question. Deduct the mark for u first if both marks for u and pp may
be deducted in the same question.
d. In any case, do not deduct any marks for pp or u in those steps where candidates could not score any
marks.

7. In the marking scheme, ‘r.t.’ stands for ‘accepting answer which can be rounded off to’ and ‘f.t.’ stands for
‘follow through’. Steps which can be skipped are shaded whereas alternative answers are enclosed with
rectangles. All fractional answers must be simplified.
