Marking Guidelines
• If a candidate answered a QUESTION TWICE, mark only the FIRST attempt.
• If a candidate crossed out an answer and did not redo it, mark the crossed-out answer.
• Consistent accuracy applies to ALL aspects of the marking guidelines.
• Assuming values/answer in order to solve a problem is unacceptable.
GEOMETRY
A mark for a correct statement
S (A statement mark is independent of a reason.)
R A mark for a 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.
