General marking guidance These notes offer general guidance, but the specific notes for examiners appertaining to individual questions take precedence. 1 All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the last

candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the first.

Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by which marks will be awarded; exemplification/indicative content will not be exhaustive.

2 All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded; mark schemes

should be applied positively. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the candidate’s response is not worthy of credit according to the mark scheme. If there is a wrong answer (or no 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.

Questions where working is not required: In general, the correct answer should be given full marks. Questions that specifically require working: In general, candidates who do not show working on this type of question will get no marks – full details will be given in the mark scheme for each individual question.

3 Crossed out work

This should be marked unless the candidate has replaced it with an alternative response.

4 Choice of method If there is a choice of methods shown, mark the method that leads to the answer given on the answer line.

If no answer appears on the answer line, mark both methods then award the lower number of marks.

5 Incorrect method

If it is clear from the working that the “correct” answer has been obtained from incorrect working, award 0 marks. Send the response to review for your Team Leader to check.

6 Follow through marks

Follow through marks which involve a single stage calculation can be awarded without working as you can check the answer, but if ambiguous do not award. Follow through marks which involve more than one stage of calculation can only be awarded on sight of the relevant working, even if it appears obvious that there is only one way you could get the answer given.

7 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 or its context. (eg. an incorrectly cancelled fraction when the unsimplified fraction would gain full marks). It is not appropriate to ignore subsequent work when the additional work essentially makes the answer incorrect (eg. incorrect algebraic simplification).

8 Probability

Probability answers must be given as a fraction, percentage or decimal. If a candidate gives a decimal equivalent to a probability, this should be written to at least 2 decimal places (unless tenths). Incorrect notation should lose the accuracy marks, but be awarded any implied method marks. If a probability answer is given on the answer line using both incorrect and correct notation, award the marks. If a probability fraction is given then cancelled incorrectly, ignore the incorrectly cancelled answer.

9 Linear equations

Unless indicated otherwise in the mark scheme, full marks can be gained if the solution alone is given on the answer line, or otherwise unambiguously identified in working (without contradiction elsewhere). Where the correct solution only is shown substituted, but not identified as the solution, the accuracy mark is lost but any method marks can be awarded (embedded answers).

10 Range of answers

Unless otherwise stated, when an answer is given as a range (e.g 3.5 – 4.2) then this is inclusive of the end points (e.g 3.5, 4.2) and all numbers within the range.

1 × 7 + 2 × 5 + 3 × 4 + 4 × 4 + 5 × 6 + 6 × 4 = 99

99 ÷ 6 = 16.5

The mean score is 16.5

(b) Describe the mistake Graham made in his method to work out the mean score.

The tank is empty.

Oil flows into the tank. After one minute there are 300 litres of oil in the tank.

Assume that oil continues to flow into the tank at this rate.

(a) Work out how many more minutes it takes for the tank to be 85% full of oil. (1 m3 = 1000 litres)

13 Mr Brown gives his class a test. The 10 girls in the class get a mean mark of 70% The 15 boys in the class get a mean mark of 80%

Nick says that because the mean of 70 and 80 is 75 then the mean mark for the whole class in the test is 75%

Nick is not correct. Is the correct mean mark less than or greater than 75%? You must justify your answer.
