These marking guidelines serve as a guide to markers. Some responses may require a marker's discretion, while others may be expanded at the national marking guideline discussion. 3. Candidates' responses should be assessed as objectively as possible. MARKING THE COMPREHENSION  Because the focus is on understanding, incorrect spelling and language errors in responses should not be penalised unless such errors change the meaning/understanding. (Errors must still be indicated.)  If a candidate uses words from a language other than the one being examined, disregard those words, and if the answer still makes sense, do not penalise. However, if a word from another language is used in a text and required in an answer, this will be acceptable.  For open-ended questions, no marks should be awarded for YES/NO or I AGREE/I DISAGREE. The reason/substantiation/motivation is what should be considered.  When one-word answers are required and the candidate gives a whole sentence, mark correct provided that the correct word is underlined/ highlighted.  When two/three facts/points are required and a range is given, mark only the first two/three.  Accept dialectal variations.  For multiple-choice questions, accept BOTH the letter corresponding with the correct answer AND/OR the answer written out in full.
