General Marking Guidance

 All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must

mark the first 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.

PEARSON EDEXCEL IAL MATHEMATICS

General Instructions for Marking

1. The total number of marks for the paper is 125

2. The Edexcel Mathematics mark schemes use the following types of marks:

 M marks: Method marks are awarded for ‘knowing a method and attempting to
apply it’, unless otherwise indicated.
 A marks: Accuracy marks can only be awarded if the relevant method (M)
marks have been earned.
 B marks are unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M marks)
 Marks should not be subdivided.

3. Abbreviations

These are some of the traditional marking abbreviations that will appear in the
mark schemes.

 bod – benefit of doubt

 ft – follow through
 the symbol will be used for correct ft
 cao – correct answer only
 cso - correct solution only. There must be no errors in this part of the
question to obtain 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
 or d… The second mark is dependent on gaining the first mark
 PhysicsAndMathsTutor.com

4. All A marks are ‘correct answer only’ (cao.), unless shown, for example, as A1
ft to indicate that previous wrong working is to be followed through. After a
misread however, the subsequent A marks affected are treated as A ft.

5. For misreading which does not alter the character of a question or materially
simplify it, 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
crossed out.
 If either all attempts are crossed out or none are crossed out, mark all
the attempts 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

( x2  bx  c)  ( x  p)(x  q), where pq  c , leading to x = …

(ax2  bx  c)  (mx  p)(nx  q), where pq  c and mn  a , leading to x = …

2. Formula

Attempt to use the correct formula (with values for a, b and c).

3. Completing the square

2
 b
Solving x 2  bx  c  0 :  x    q  c  0, q  0 , leading to x = …
 2

Method marks for differentiation and integration:

1. Differentiation

Power of at least one term decreased by 1. ( x n  x n 1 )

2. Integration

Power of at least one term increased by 1. ( x n  x n  1 )

 PhysicsAndMathsTutor.com
Use of a formula

Where a method involves using a formula that has been learnt, the advice given in recent
examiners’ 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
small errors in the substitution of values.

Where the formula is not quoted, the method mark can be gained by implication from
correct working with values, but may be lost if there is any mistake in the working.

Exact answers

Examiners’ 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
resorts to using rounded decimals.

Useful guide: (but please use the scheme and notes)
1) Scan through candidates answer to ascertain whether they are integrating just the curve or the line –
the curve to decide the method. Looking at their limits of integration can help you decide between
alt 1 and alt 2
2) Marks are awarded like this
M1: Attempt to integrate appropriate function to reach a quartic
A1: Correct answer to the integration. There is no follow through
M1: Correct limits used in the integrated function
M1: Finds area under line (main or alt 1) either by using the correct triangle or using the correct f
function and limits.
Finds area under curve (alt 2) using correct function and limits
dM1: Correct combination of areas. It is dependent upon all 3 M’s
A1: Correct answer
If an incomplete method is shown always score by the method that gives the candidate more marks. If
you cannot determine the method that a candidate has used then please use the review system and your
team leader will advise.
