General Marking Guidance All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examinersmust mark the first candidate in exactly the same way as they markthe last. Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must berewarded for what they have shown they can do rather than penalisedfor omissions. Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme notaccording to their perception of where the grade boundaries may lie. There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the markscheme should be used appropriately. All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded.Examiners should always award full marks if deserved, i.e. if theanswer matches the mark scheme. Examiners should also be preparedto award zero marks if the candidate’s response is not worthy of creditaccording to the mark scheme. Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will providethe principles by which marks will be awarded and exemplification maybe limited. Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate hasreplaced it with an alternative response.
PEARSON EDEXCEL GCE MATHEMATICSGeneral Instructions for Marking1. The total number of marks for the paper is 752. The Edexcel Mathematics mark schemes use the following types of marks: M marks: Method marks are awarded for ‘knowing a method and attempting toapply it’, unless otherwise indicated. A marks: Accuracy marks can only be awarded if the relevant method (M) markshave been earned. B marks are unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M marks) Marks should not be subdivided.3. AbbreviationsThese are some of the traditional marking abbreviations that will appear in the markschemes. bod – benefit of doubt ft – follow through the symbol cao – correct answer only cso - correct solution only. There must be no errors in this part of the question toobtain this mark isw – ignore subsequent working awrt – answers which round to SC: special case oe – or equivalent (and appropriate) d or dep – dependent indep – independent dp decimal places sf significant figures The answer is printed on the paper or ag- answer given will be used for correct ftor d The second mark is dependent on gaining the first mark4. All A marks are ‘correct answer only’ (cao.), unless shown, for example, as A1 ft toindicate that previous wrong working is to be followed through. After a misreadhowever, the subsequent A marks affected are treated as A ft, but manifestly absurdanswers should never be awarded A marks.
5. For misreading which does not alter the character of a question or materially simplifyit, deduct two from any A or B marks gained, in that part of the question affected.6. If a candidate makes more than one attempt at any question: If all but one attempt is crossed out, mark the attempt which is NOT crossedout. If either all attempts are crossed out or none are crossed out, mark all theattempts and score the highest single attempt.7. Ignore wrong working or incorrect statements following a correct answer.
General Principles for Core Mathematics Marking(But note that specific mark schemes may sometimes override these general principles).Method mark for solving 3 term quadratic:1. Factorisation( x 2 bx c) ( x p)( x q), where pq c , leading to x (ax 2 bx c) (mx p)(nx q), where pq c and mn a , leading to x 2. FormulaAttempt to use the correct formula (with values for a, b and c).3. Completing the squareSolving x bx c 0 :22b x q c 0, q 0 , leading to x 2 Method marks for differentiation and integration:1. DifferentiationPower of at least one term decreased by 1. ( x xnn 1)2. IntegrationPower of at least one term increased by 1. ( x xnn 1)
Use of a formulaWhere a method involves using a formula that has been learnt, the advice given in recentexaminers’ reports is that the formula should be quoted first.Normal marking procedure is as follows:Method mark for quoting a correct formula and attempting to use it, even if there are smallerrors in the substitution of values.Where the formula is not quoted, the method mark can be gained by implication from correctworking with values, but may be lost if there is any mistake in the working.Exact answersExaminers’ reports have emphasised that where, for example, an exact answer is asked for,or working with surds is clearly required, marks will normally be lost if the candidate resortsto using rounded decimals.7
