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
o M marks: method marks
o A marks: accuracy marks – can only be awarded when relevant M marks
have been gained
o B marks: unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M marks)

 Abbreviations
o cao – correct answer only
o cso – correct solution 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
o eeoo – each error or omission

 No working
If no working is shown then correct answers may score full marks
If no working is shown then incorrect (even though nearly correct) answers score
no marks.
  With working
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;
follow through their working and deduct 2A marks from any gained provided the
work has not been simplified. (Do not deduct any M marks gained.)
If there is a choice of methods shown, then award the lowest mark, unless the
subsequent working makes clear the method that has been used
Examiners should send any instance of a suspected misread to review (but see
above for simple misreads).

 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.

 Parts of questions
Unless allowed by the mark scheme, the marks allocated to one part of the
question CANNOT be awarded to another.

 
 General Principles for Further Pure Mathematics Marking
(but note that specific mark schemes may sometimes override these general principles)

Method mark for solving a 3 term quadratic equation:

1. Factorisation:

x 2
 bx  c    x  p  x  q  , where pq  c leading to x  ....

 ax 2
 bx  c    mx  p  nx  q  where pq  c and mn  a leading to x  ....

2. Formula:

Attempt to use the correct formula (shown explicitly or implied by working)

with values for a, b and c, leading to x  ....

3. Completing the square:

x2  bx  c  0 :  x  b2   q  c  0,
2
q0 leading to x  ....

Method marks for differentiation and integration:

1. Differentiation

Power of at least one term decreased by 1. x n

 xn1 

2. Integration:

Power of at least one term increased by 1. x n

 xn1 

 
Use of a formula:

Generally, the method mark is gained by either

quoting a correct formula and attempting to use it, even if there are mistakes in
the substitution of values

or, where the formula is not quoted, the method mark can be gained by implication

from the substitution of correct values and then proceeding to a solution.

Answers without working:

The rubric states "Without sufficient working, correct answers may be awarded no marks".

General policy is that if it could be done "in your head" detailed working would not be
required. (Mark schemes may override this eg in a case of "prove or show...."

Exact answers:

When a question demands an exact answer, all the working must also be exact. Once a
candidate loses exactness by resorting to decimals the exactness cannot be regained.

Rounding answers (where accuracy is specified in the question)

Penalise only once per question for failing to round as instructed - ie giving more digits
in the answers. Answers with fewer digits are automatically incorrect, but the is rule
may allow the mark to be awarded before the final answer is given.
