Document Content and Description Below

Here are the subject specific instructions for this question paper. CATEGORISATION OF MARKS The marking schemes categorise marks on the MACB scheme. M marks These are method marks upon which A-mark... s (accuracy marks) later depend. For an M-mark to be scored, the point to which it refers must be seen in the candidate’s answers. If a candidate fails to score a particular M-mark, then none of the dependent A-marks can be scored. A marks These are accuracy or answer marks, which either depend on an M-mark, or allow a C-mark to be scored. C marks These are compensatory method marks which can be scored even if the points to which they refer are not written down by the candidate, providing subsequent working gives evidence that they must have known it. For example, if an equation carries a C-mark and the candidate does not write down the actual equation but does correct working which shows the candidate knew the equation, then the C-mark is given. B marks These are awarded as independent marks, which do not depend on other marks. For a B-mark to be scored, the point to which it refers must be seen specifically in the candidate’s answers. SIGNIFICANT FIGURES If the data given in a question is to 2 sf, then allow an answer to 2 or more significant figures. If an answer is given to.......................continued [Show More]
