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.
