HSE SECOND YEAR PUBLIC EXAMINATION – MARCH/APRIL-2023

MATHEMATICS MARKING SCHEME – ENGLISH MEDIUM

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

MAXIMUM MARKS :90

1. The answers given in the marking scheme are Text book and Solution
book bound.

2. If a student has given any answer which is different from one given
in the marking scheme, but carries the prescribed content meaning
(rigorous) such answers should be given full credit with suitable
distribution.

3. Follow the footnotes which are given under certain answer schemes.

4. If a particular stage is wrong and if the candidate writes the appropriate

formula then award 1 mark for the formula (for the stage mark 2*). This
mark (*) is attached with that stage. This is done with the aim that a
student who did the problem correctly without writing the formula should
not be penalized.

5. In the case of Part II, Part III and Part IV, if the solution is correct then
award full mark directly. The stage mark is essential only if the part of
the solution is incorrect.

6. Answers written only in Black or Blue ink should be evaluated.

 PART – I

1. One mark to write the correct option and the corresponding answer.
2. If one of them (answer or option) is wrong, then award zero mark only.

 Important Note for Part – III and Part – IV

In an answer to a question, between any two particular stages of

marks (greater than one) if a student starts from a stage with correct
step but reaches the next stage with a wrong result then suitable credits
should be given to the related steps instead of denying the entire marks
meant for the stage.
