NSC – Marking Guidelines
NOTE:
• If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt.
• If a candidate has crossed out an attempt of a question and not redone the question, mark the
crossed-out version.
• Consistent accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines. Stop marking at the
second calculation error.
• Assuming answers/values in order to solve a problem is NOT acceptable.
GEOMETRY
S A mark for a correct statement (a statement mark is independent of a reason).
R A mark for the correct reason (a reason mark may only be awarded if the statement is correct).
S/R Award a mark if the statement AND reason are both correct.
