2 MATHEMATICAL LITERACY P1 (EC/JUNE 2024)
NOTE:
• If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt.
• If a candidate has crossed out (cancelled) an attempt to a question and NOT redone the
question,
mark the crossed out (cancelled) version.
• Consistent accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines. Stop marking at
the second calculation error.
• NOTE: Consistent accuracy (CA) does NOT apply in cases of a breakdown.
• If the candidate presents any extra solution when reading from a graph, and table then penalise
for every extra item presented.
• As a general marking principle, if a candidate has incurred one mistake and there is evidence
of sound Mathematics thereafter, then that candidate should lose ONE mark only.
Topics: F – Finance, DH – Data Handling, P – Probability
