 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.
 General Instructions for Marking

1. The total number of marks for the paper is 75.

2. The Pearson 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
and can be used if you are using the annotation facility on ePEN.

• bod – benefit of doubt

• ft – follow through
• the symbol or ft 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

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, but manifestly absurd answers should
never be awarded A marks.
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. If you are
using the annotation facility on ePEN, indicate this action by ‘MR’ in the body of the script.

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

3. Completing the square

2
Solving x + bx + c = 0 : ( x ± b2 )2 ± q ± c, q ≠ 0, leading to x = …

Method marks for differentiation and integration:

1. Differentiation
n n −1
Power of at least one term decreased by 1. ( x → x )

2. Integration
n n +1
Power of at least one term increased by 1. ( x → x )

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 mistakes
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.

Answers without working

The rubric says that these may not gain full credit. Individual mark schemes will give details of what
happens in particular cases. General policy is that if it could be done “in your head”, detailed working
would not be required. Most candidates do show working, but there are occasional awkward cases
and if the mark scheme does not cover this, please contact your team leader for advice

M1: For writing down any two equations that give the coordinates of the point of intersection.
Accept two of 4 + 3λ = 2 + 2 µ , −3 − 2λ = 0 − 1µ , 2 − 1λ =−9 − 3µ
There must be an attempt to set the coordinates equal but condone one slip.
Setting the vectors equal to each other is insufficient for this but correct calculations will imply this.
M1: A full method to find either λ or µ . There are a few answers with limited or no working.
In such cases this M mark can be implied only if either λ or µ are correct for their equations.
A1: Either value correct µ = −5 or λ = −4 . Correct value(s) following correct equations implies M1 A1

dM1: Substitutes their value of λ into l1 to find the coordinates or position vector of the point of intersection.
It is dependent upon having scored second method mark. Alternatively substitutes their value of µ into
l2 to find the coordinates or position vector of the point of intersection. It can be implied in cases
where there is limited working by two correct coordinates for their λ or µ .
