General Marking Instructions
Introduction
The mark scheme normally provides the most popular solution to each question. Other solutions
given by candidates are evaluated and credit given as appropriate; these alternative methods
are not usually illustrated in the published mark scheme.
The solution to a question gains marks for correct method and marks for accurate working
based on this method. The marks awarded for each question are shown in the right hand
column and they are prefixed by the letters M, A and MA as appropriate. The key to the mark
scheme is given below:
M indicates marks for correct method.

A indicates marks for accurate working, whether in calculation, reading from tables, graphs or
answers. Accuracy marks may depend on preceding M (method) marks, hence M0 A1
cannot be awarded, i.e. where the method is not correct no marks can be given.
MA indicates marks for combined method and accurate working.
A later part of a question may require a candidate to use an answer obtained from an earlier
part of the same question. A candidate who gets the wrong answer to the earlier part and
goes on to the later part is naturally unaware that the wrong data is being used and is actually
undertaking the solution of a parallel problem from the point at which the error occurred. If a
candidate continues to apply correct method, then the candidate’s individual working must be
followed through from the error. If no further errors are made, then the candidate is penalised
only for the initial error. Solutions containing two or more working or transcription errors are
treated in the same way. This process is usually referred to as “follow-through marking”
and allows a candidate to gain credit for that part of a solution which follows a working or
transcription error.
It should be noted that where an error trivialises a question, or changes the nature of the skills
being tested, then as a general rule, it would be the case that not more than half the marks for
that question or part of that question would be awarded; in some cases the error may be such
that no marks would be awarded.
Positive marking
It is our intention to reward candidates for any demonstration of relevant knowledge, skills or
understanding. For this reason we adopt a policy of following through their answers, that is,
having penalised a candidate for an error, we mark the succeeding parts of the question using
the candidate’s value or answers and award marks accordingly.
Some common examples of this occur in the following cases:
(a) a numerical error in one entry in a table of values might lead to several answers being
incorrect, but these might not be essentially separate errors;
(b) readings taken from a candidate’s inaccurate graphs may not agree with the answers
expected but might be consistent with the graphs drawn.
When the candidate misreads a question in such a way as to make the question easier, only a
proportion of the marks will be available (based on the professional judgement of the examiner).
202
General Marking Advice
(i) If the correct answer is seen in the body of the script and the answer given in the
answer line is clearly a transcription error, full marks should be awarded.
(ii) If the answer is missing, but the correct answer is seen in the body of the script, full marks
should be awarded.
(iii) If the correct answer is seen in working but a completely different answer is seen in the
answer space, then some marks will be awarded depending on the severity of the error.
(iv) Work crossed out but not replaced should be marked.
(v) In general, if two or more methods are offered, mark only the method that leads to the
answer on the answer line. If two (or more) answers are offered (with no solution offered
on the answer line), mark the poorest answer.
(vi) For methods not provided for in the mark scheme, give as far as possible equivalent
marks for equivalent work.
(vii) Where a follow through mark is indicated on the mark scheme for a particular part
question, the marker must ensure that you refer back to the answer of the previous part of
the question.
(viii) Unless the question asks for an answer to a specific degree of accuracy, always mark at
the greatest number of significant figures seen, e.g. the answer in the mark scheme is
4.65 and the candidate then correctly rounds to 4.7 or 5 on the answer line. Allow full
marks for 4.65 seen in the working.
(ix) Anything in the mark scheme which is in brackets (...) is not required for the mark to be
earned, but if present it must be correct.
(x) For any question, the range of answers given in the mark scheme is inclusive.
