General Marking Guidance
• All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark 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
• M marks: method marks
• A marks: accuracy marks
• B marks: unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M marks)
Abbreviations
• cao – correct answer only
• ft – follow through
• isw – ignore subsequent working
• SC - special case
• oe – or equivalent (and appropriate)
• dep – dependent
• indep – independent
• awrt – answer which rounds to
• eeoo – each error or omission
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.
Parts of questions
• Unless allowed by the mark scheme, the marks allocated to one part of the
question CANNOT be awarded to another.
International GCSE Maths
Apart from questions 4, 10, 14a,15a, 15b, 18, 24 the correct answer, unless clearly obtained by an incorrect method, should be taken to imply
a correct method
