Pure Mathematics 2

Summer 2019 Shadow Paper student-friendly mark scheme

Please note that this mark scheme is not the one used by
examiners for making scripts. It is intended more as a guide to
good practice, indicating where marks are given for correct
answers. As such, it doesn’t show follow-through marks (marks
that are awarded despite errors being made) or special cases.

It should also be noted that for many questions, there may be

alternative methods of finding correct solutions that are not shown
here – they will be covered in the formal mark scheme.

This document is intended for guidance only and may differ

significantly from the mark schemes used by examiners.

Guidance on the use of codes within this document

M1 – method mark. This mark is generally given for an appropriate method in

the context of the question. This mark is given for showing your working and
may be awarded even if working is incorrect.

A1 – accuracy mark. This mark is generally given for a correct answer following
correct working.

B1 – working mark. This mark is usually given when working and the answer
cannot easily be separated.

Some questions require all working to be shown; in such questions, no marks

will be given for an answer with no working (even if it is a correct answer).
