Date: 16-10-2007 ‘When marking a question, it must be bore in mind that the minimum experience required can be as little as 1 years maintenance of operating aircraft, therefore the knowledge required should be that which may be reasonably be expected of an engineer with this minimum experience. ‘The answer given may be based on a system in an aircraft that an engineer may not be familiar with and it is important in these cases that consideration is given to this before marking the question. It should be remembered that itis riot a type examination, Ifthe system described is unusual and found only on a aulitary aircraft the answer will not be acceptable. When explaining the inspection I testing of a system, the answer must describe the nature of the check and not just state “the system must be checked”, The answer should show the candidate's ability to express himself in technical English, ‘The examiner will read the answer and look for "key points" comments or phrases, A mark will then. centered in the right hand column of the answer sheet, dependant upon the value of the answer up to the ‘maximum allocated for each key point, After this exercise bas been completed if required, the points deduction table can be referred to and applied. ‘Where there is “significant error” in a key point, or ifthe standard of English writing or expression is below the required standard, then points may be deducted from an answer. The rationale for the deduction and the umber of points allocated are to be written in "RED" pen at the bottom of the question paper ‘The following table illustrates the considered reasons for deducting points. When a reduction of marks has ‘been applied that will result in a question failure, the rationale for the deduction should be discussed and agreed with another examiner, ‘The minimum pass mark for each essay question is 759% and all our questions have to reach the minimum pass mark of 75% to achieve a module pass. Significant Error Improper or incorrect safety precautions 20 Improper techniques or practices 10 Dangerous techniques or practices 15 Good answer to wrong question 30 Incorrect English Unreadable writing 30 Total use of diagram 30 Extremely difficult to read or comprehend 20 Diagram used co detriment of text 15 Difficult to read or comprehend 10 Text to terse or abbreviated statements 15 Bad sentence structuring 10 Incorrect/lack of appropriate terminology 15 Excessive use bulletin points /itemisation 10 Ilogical sequence of events 15 Note: This ist shows the maximum number of points that may be deducted for ervors or poor English. ‘Asa rough guide the percentage mark allocated should reflect the following: below 65 Poor Many or most key points missed 65 Unacceptable Just below minimum key points 75 ‘Acceptable Main key points 85 Good Majority of key points quoted 95 Very Good Very good key presentation over 95 Excellent Has shown understanding of the subject to a high level1.
