If more information than marks allocated is given Stop marking when maximum marks are reached and put a wavy line and ‘max’ in the right-hand margin. If, for example, three reasons are required and five are given Mark the first three irrespective of whether all or some are correct/incorrect. If whole process is given when only part of it is required Read all and credit relevant part. If comparisons are asked for but descriptions are given Accept if differences/similarities are clear. If tabulation is required, but paragraphs are given Candidates will lose marks for not tabulating. If diagrams are given with annotations when descriptions are required Candidates will lose marks. If flow charts are given instead of descriptions Candidates will lose marks. If sequence is muddled and links do not make sense Where sequence and links are correct, credit. Where sequence and links are incorrect, do not credit. If sequence and links become correct again, resume credit. Non-recognised abbreviations Accept if first defined in answer. If not defined, do not credit the unrecognized abbreviation, but credit the rest of answer if correct. Wrong numbering If answer fits into the correct sequence of questions but the wrong number is given, it is acceptable. If language used changes the intended meaning Do not accept. Spelling errors If recognisable, accept the answer, provided it does not mean something else in Life Sciences or if it is out of context. If common names given in terminology Accept, provided it was accepted at the National memo discussion meeting. If only letter is asked for and only name is given (and vice versa) Do not credit. If units are not given in measurements Candidates will lose marks. Memorandum will allocate marks for units separately. Copyright reserved Please turn over
