Notes for Marking of Scripts
Types of Marks
Method marks are awarded for knowing a correct method of solution and attempting to apply it. Method
marks cannot be lost for arithmetic mistakes. They can only be awarded if the method used would have
led to the correct answer had not an arithmetic mistake been made. Unless otherwise stated, any valid
method not specified in the marking scheme is to be accepted and marked accordingly.
There are two types of Method marks: M marks and (M) marks.
• M marks are only awarded if method is seen.
• (M) marks are awarded even when a correct answer is given and no work is shown.
There are two types of Accuracy marks: A marks and B marks.

• A marks are accuracy marks given for correct answer only (c.a.o.).
 Incorrect answers, even though nearly correct, score no marks.
 Accuracy marks are also awarded for incorrect answers which are correctly followed through
(f.t.) from an incorrect previous answer, provided that f.t. is indicated in the marking scheme.
 No Method marks M/(M) or Accuracy marks A are awarded when a wrong method leads to a
correct answer.
 When a question is assigned M and A marks and students present a correct answer without any
working, only A marks are awarded.
• B marks are accuracy marks awarded for specific results or statements independent of the method
used.
Misreading
Method marks can still be earned (unless that part of the question is trivialised) but the final Accuracy
marks are lost.
Crossed out working
An answer or working that is crossed out and not replaced is marked as if it were not crossed out. If the
answer or working is replaced, then the crossed out answer or working is ignored and should not be
considered for marking.
Units
In general, missing or inaccurate units are not penalised unless otherwise indicated in the marking scheme.
Other
➢ Incorrect working or statement following a correct answer is ignored.
➢ Marks are not sub-divisible; no half marks may be awarded.
➢ Other abbreviations used:
• o.e. (or equivalent)
• e.e.o.o. (each error or omission)
➢ Markers are advised to indicate the M, (M), A or B marks awarded in the body of the script and then
write their total in the margin. The total mark for each question should be written in the table included
at the top of page 1 of the main paper. This measure facilitates the moderation of papers.
