General Marking Guidance

d.
co
All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark

m
the first candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the last.
Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must be
rewarded for what they have shown they can do rather than penalised
for omissions.
Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not according
to their perception of where the grade boundaries may lie.
There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the mark scheme
should be used appropriately.
All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded.
Examiners should always award full marks if deserved, i.e. if the
answer matches the mark scheme.
Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the
candidate’s response is not worthy of credit according to the mark
scheme.
Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the
principles by which marks will be awarded and exemplification may be
limited.
When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the mark
scheme to a candidate’s response, the team leader must be consulted.
Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has
replaced it with an alternative response.

Types of mark
o M marks: method marks
o A marks: accuracy marks
o B marks: unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M
marks)
Abbreviations
o cao – correct answer only
o ft – follow through
o isw – ignore subsequent working
o SC - special case
o oe – or equivalent (and appropriate)
o dep – dependent
o indep – independent

o awrt – answer which rounds to

d.
co
o eeoo – each error or omission

m
No working
If no working is shown then correct answers normally score full marks
If no working is shown then incorrect (even though nearly correct)
answers score no marks.
With working
If there is a wrong answer indicated on the answer line always check
the working in the body of the script (and on any diagrams), and award
any marks appropriate from the mark scheme.
If it is clear from the working that the “correct” answer has been
obtained from incorrect working, award 0 marks.
If a candidate misreads a number from the question. Eg. Uses 252
instead of 255; method marks may be awarded provided the question
has not been simplified. Examiners should send any instance of a
suspected misread to review. If there is a choice of methods shown,
mark the method that leads to the answer on the answer line; where
no answer is given on the answer line, award the lowest mark from the
methods shown.
If there is no answer on the answer line then check the working for an
obvious answer.
Ignoring subsequent work
It is appropriate to ignore subsequent work when the additional work
does not change the answer in a way that is inappropriate for the
question: eg. Incorrect cancelling of a fraction that would otherwise be
correct.
It is not appropriate to ignore subsequent work when the additional
work essentially makes the answer incorrect eg algebra.
Transcription errors occur when candidates present a correct answer
in working, and write it incorrectly on the answer line; mark the correct
answer.
Parts of questions
Unless allowed by the mark scheme, the marks allocated to one part
of the question CANNOT be awarded to another.
