Marking • ALL selected questions MUST be marked, irrespective of whether it is correct or incorrect • Candidates are expected to make a choice of THREE questions to answer. If all questions are answered, ONLY the first three questions are marked. • A clear, neat tick must be used:  o If ONE mark is allocated, ONE tick must be used:  o If TWO marks are allocated, TWO ticks must be used:  o The tick must be placed at the FACT that a mark is being allocated for o Ticks must be kept SMALL, as various layers of moderation may take place • Incorrect answers must be marked with a clear, neat cross:  o Use MORE than one cross across a paragraph/discussion style questions to indicate that all facts have been considered o Do NOT draw a line through an incorrect answer o Do NOT underline the incorrect facts • Where the maximum marks have been allocated in the first few sentences of a paragraph, place an M over the remainder of the text to indicate the maximum marks have been achieved For the following action words, ONE word answers are acceptable: give, list, name, state, identify For the following action words, a FULL sentence must be written: describe, explain, evaluate, analyse, suggest, differentiate, distinguish, define, discuss, why, how The following action words need to be read within its context to determine whether a ONE word answer or FULL sentence is required: provide, what, tabulate Totalling and transferring of marks • Each sub-question must be totalled o Each question has six sub-sections, therefore six sub-totals per question required o Sub-section totals to be written in right hand margin at the end of the sub-section and underlined o Sub-total must be written legibly o Leave room to write in moderated marks on different levels • Total sub-totals and transfer total to top left hand margin next to question number • Transfer total to cover of answer book Moderation Marking on each level of moderation is done in the same way as the initial marking. All guidelines for marking must be adhered to. If a mark for a sub-question is changed after moderation, the moderator must strike through the markerˈs mark and write down the new mark. 12 16 The total for the question must be re-calculated, and similarly be struck off and the new total to be written down.
