Common Techniques of Marking Answer Scripts.

It is compulsory to adhere to the following standard method in marking answer scripts and
entering marks into the mark sheets.
1. Use a red color ball point pen for marking. (Only Chief/Additional Chief Examiner may use a
mauve color pen.)
2. Note down Examiner's Code Number and initials on the front page of each answer script.
3. Write off any numerals written wrong with a clear single line and authenticate the alterations
with Examiner's initials.
4. Write down marks of each subsection in a and write the final marks of each question as
a rational number in a with the question number. Use the column assigned for Examiners
to write down marks.
Example: Question No. 03

(i) …………………...................................
……………………................................ √ 4
……………………................................ 5
(ii) ……………………................................
……………………............................... 3
…………………...............................… √ 5
(iii) ……………………............................... 3
……………………............................... √ 5

MCQ answer scripts: (Template)

1. Marking templets for G.C.E.(A/L) and GIT examination will be provided by the Department of
Examinations itself. Marking examiners bear the responsibility of using correctly prepared
and certified templates.
2. Then, check the answer scripts carefully. If there are more than one or no answers Marked
to a certain question write off the options with a line. Sometimes candidates may have
erased an option marked previously and selected another option. In such occasions, if the
erasure is not clear write off those options too.
3. Place the template on the answer script correctly. Mark the right answers with a '√' and the
wrong answers with a 'X' against the options column. Write down the number of correct
answers inside the cage given under each column. Then, add those numbers and write the
number of correct answers in the relevant cage.

Structured essay type and assay type answer scripts:
1. Cross off any pages left blank by candidates. Underline wrong or unsuitable answers. Show
areas where marks can be offered with check marks.
2. Use the right margin of the overland paper to write down the marks.
3. Write down the marks given for each question against the question number in the relevant
cage on the front page in two digits. Selection of questions should be in accordance with the
instructions given in the question paper. Mark all answers and transfer the marks to the front
page, and write off answers with lower marks if extra questions have been answered against
instructions.
4. Add the total carefully and write in the relevant cage on the front page. Turn pages of answer
script and add all the marks given for all answers again. Check whether that total tallies with
the total marks written on the front page.
Preparation of Mark Sheets.
Except for the subjects with a single question paper, final marks of two papers will not be calculated
within the evaluation board this time. Therefore, add separate mark sheets for each of the question
paper. Write paper 01 marks in the paper 01 column of the mark sheet and write them in words too.
Write paper II Marks in the paper II Column and wright the relevant details.

For n  1, L.H.S. = 6+1=7 and

R.H.S. = 1(3+4) = 7
Hence, the result is true for n  1. 5 For verifying the result for n=1
Let k be any positive integer and suppose that the

result is true for n  k .

i.e  (6r  1)  k (3k  4).

Now,  (6r  1)   (6r  1)  6(k  1)  1

5 (k+1) (3k+7) or equivalent seen
 (k  1)(3k  7).
 (k  1) 3(k  1)  4.
Hence, if the result is true for n  k ,
it is also true for n  k  1. We have already

proved that the result is true for n  1.
Hence, by the Principle of Mathematical Induction,

Common Techniques of Marking Answer Scripts.

It is compulsory to adhere to the following standard method in marking answer scripts and
entering marks into the mark sheets.
1. Use a red color ball point pen for marking. (Only Chief/Additional Chief Examiner may use a
mauve color pen.)
2. Note down Examiner's Code Number and initials on the front page of each answer script.
3. Write off any numerals written wrong with a clear single line and authenticate the alterations
with Examiner's initials.
4. Write down marks of each subsection in a and write the final marks of each question as
a rational number in a with the question number. Use the column assigned for Examiners
to write down marks.
Example: Question No. 03

(i) …………………...................................
……………………................................ √ 4
……………………................................ 5
(ii) ……………………................................
……………………............................... 3
…………………...............................… √ 5
(iii) ……………………............................... 3

MCQ answer scripts: (Template)

1. Marking templets for G.C.E.(A/L) and GIT examination will be provided by the Department of
Examinations itself. Marking examiners bear the responsibility of using correctly prepared
and certified templates.
2. Then, check the answer scripts carefully. If there are more than one or no answers Marked
to a certain question write off the options with a line. Sometimes candidates may have
erased an option marked previously and selected another option. In such occasions, if the
erasure is not clear write off those options too.
3. Place the template on the answer script correctly. Mark the right answers with a '√' and the
wrong answers with a 'X' against the options column. Write down the number of correct
answers inside the cage given under each column. Then, add those numbers and write the
number of correct answers in the relevant cage.

Structured essay type and assay type answer scripts:
1. Cross off any pages left blank by candidates. Underline wrong or unsuitable answers. Show
areas where marks can be offered with check marks.
2. Use the right margin of the overland paper to write down the marks.
3. Write down the marks given for each question against the question number in the relevant
cage on the front page in two digits. Selection of questions should be in accordance with the
instructions given in the question paper. Mark all answers and transfer the marks to the front
page, and write off answers with lower marks if extra questions have been answered against
instructions.
4. Add the total carefully and write in the relevant cage on the front page. Turn pages of answer
script and add all the marks given for all answers again. Check whether that total tallies with
the total marks written on the front page.
Preparation of Mark Sheets.
Except for the subjects with a single question paper, final marks of two papers will not be calculated
within the evaluation board this time. Therefore, add separate mark sheets for each of the question
paper. Write paper 01 marks in the paper 01 column of the mark sheet and write them in words too.
Write paper II Marks in the paper II Column and wright the relevant details.
