Paper 1 Markscheme Instructions to Examiners
1 Method of marking (a) (b) All marking must be done using a red pen. Marks should be noted on candidates’ scripts as in the markscheme: ! show the breakdown of individual marks using the abbreviations (M1), (A2) etc. ! write down each part mark total, indicated on the markscheme (for example, [3 marks] ) – it is suggested that this be written at the end of each part, and underlined; ! write down and circle the total for each question at the end of the question. 2 Abbreviations The markscheme may make use of the following abbreviations: M A G C R AG 3 Marks awarded for Method Marks awarded for an Answer or for Accuracy Marks awarded for correct solutions, generally obtained from a Graphic Display Calculator, irrespective of working shown Marks awarded for Correct statements Marks awarded for clear Reasoning Answer Given in the question and consequently marks are not awarded

Follow Through (ft) Marks Questions in this paper were constructed to enable a candidate to: " show, step by step, what he or she knows and is able to do; " use an answer obtained in one part of a question to obtain answers in the later parts of a question. Thus errors made at any step of the solution can affect all working that follows. Furthermore, errors made early in the solution can affect more steps or parts of the solution than similar errors made later. To limit the severity of the penalty for errors made at any step of a solution, follow through (ft) marks should be awarded. The procedures for awarding these marks require that all examiners: (i) (ii) penalise an error when it first occurs; accept the incorrect answer as the appropriate value or quantity to be used in all subsequent parts of the question;

    General principles In general, you are looking for evidence that the candidate knows and understands the point required by the Marking Guidelines. It is important to mark what the candidate has written, not to assume what may have been intended. It is also important to make sure that a valid point is in the correct context. Individual words or phrases where the overall answer does not apply to the question asked should not be credited. Conventions The following conventions are used in the Marking Guidelines. A semicolon (;) separates each marking point An oblique stroke (/) separates alternatives within a marking point Underlining of a word or phrase means that the term must be used For example anaphase, the term must appear For example ...... and ........, both items must be present for a mark Brackets are used to indicate contexts for which a marking point is valid. This context may be implied by a…

    (ii) If the answer is missing, but the correct answer is seen in the body of the script, full marks should be awarded. (iii) If the correct answer is seen in working but a completely different answer is seen in the answer space, then some marks will be awarded depending on the severity of the error. (iv) Work crossed out but not replaced should be marked. (v) In general, if two or more methods are offered, mark only the method that leads to the answer on the answer line. If two (or more) answers are offered (with no solution offered on the answer line), mark the poorest answer. (vi) For methods not provided for in the mark scheme, give as far as possible equivalent marks for equivalent work. (vii) Where a follow through mark is indicated on the mark scheme for a particular part question, the marker must ensure that you refer back to the answer of the previous part of the question. (viii)Unless the question asks for an answer to a specific degree of accuracy, always mark at the greatest number of significant figures seen. E.g. the answer in the mark scheme is 4.65 and the candidate then correctly rounds to 4.7 or 5 on the answer line. Allow full marks for 4.65 seen in the working. (ix) Anything in the mark scheme which is in brackets (...) is not required for the mark to be earned, but if…
