MARKING GUIDELINE
MARKS: 150
MARKING PRINCIPLES:
1. Penalties for foreign items are applied only if the candidate is not losing marks elsewhere in the question for
that item (no foreign item penalty for misplaced items). No double penalty applied.
2. Penalties for placement or poor presentation (e.g. details) are applied only if the candidate is earning marks
on the figures for that item.
3. Full marks for correct answer. If the answer is incorrect, mark the workings provided.
4. If a pre-adjustment figure is shown as a final figure, allocate the part-mark for the working for that figure (not
the method mark for the answer). NOTE: if figures are stipulated in memo for components of workings, these
do not carry the method mark for final answer as well.
5. Unless otherwise indicated, the positive or negative effect of any figure must be considered to award the
mark. If no + or – sign or bracket is provided, assume that the figure is positive.
6. Where indicated, part-marks may be awarded to differentiate between differing qualities of answers from
candidates.
7. Where penalties are applied, the marks for that section of the question cannot be a final negative.
8. Where method marks are awarded for operation, the marker must inspect the reasonableness of the answer
before awarding the mark.
9. 'Operation' means 'Check operation'. 'One part correct' means 'Operation and one part correct'.
NOTE: Check operation must be +, –, x or ÷ or per candidates’ response.
10. In calculations, do not award marks for workings if numerator & denominator are swapped - this also applies
to ratios.
11. In awarding method marks, ensure that candidates do not get full marks for any item that is incorrect at least
in part. In such cases, do not award the method mark. Indicate by way of .
12. Be aware of candidates who provide valid alternatives beyond the marking guideline.
13. Codes: f = foreign item; p = placement/presentation.
This marking guideline consists of 11 pages.
