Glossary for Mark Schemes

'(!E examinations are marked in such a wa- as to award positive achievement wherever possible. Thus, for '(!E athematics papers, marks are awarded under various categories. M A ethod marks are awarded for a correct method which could lead to a correct answer. "ccurac- marks are awarded when following on from a correct method. .t is not necessar- to alwa-s see the method. This can be implied. arks awarded independent of method. ! M dep dep ft SC oe ark for #ualit- of $ritten (ommunication /#$(0 " method mark dependent on a previous method mark being awarded. " mark that can onl- be awarded if a previous independent mark has been awarded. Follow through marks. earlier step. arks awarded following a mistake in an

!pecial case. arks awarded within the scheme for a common misinterpretation which has some mathematical worth. 1r e&uivalent. "ccept answers that are e&uivalent. 3 eg, accept 0.2 as well as 2
