, General Marking Guidance
Question 1 continued
_____________________________________________________________________________________ • All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the first
DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA
DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA DO NOT WRITE IN THIS AREA
_____________________________________________________________________________________ candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the last.
_____________________________________________________________________________________ • Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must be rewarded for
_____________________________________________________________________________________ what they have shown they can do rather than penalised for omissions.
_____________________________________________________________________________________ • Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not according to their
_____________________________________________________________________________________ perception of where the grade boundaries may lie.
_____________________________________________________________________________________ • There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the mark scheme 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 the answer matches the mark scheme.
_____________________________________________________________________________________ Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the candidate’s
_____________________________________________________________________________________ response is not worthy of credit according to the mark scheme.
• Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by
_____________________________________________________________________________________
which marks will be awarded and exemplification may be limited.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
• When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the mark scheme to a
_____________________________________________________________________________________
candidate’s response, the team leader must be consulted.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
• Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has replaced it with
_____________________________________________________________________________________
an alternative response.
