General Marking Guidance

• All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners

must mark the first candidate in exactly the same way as they
mark the last.
• Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must
be rewarded for what they have shown they can do rather
than penalised for omissions.
• Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not
according to their perception of where the grade boundaries
may lie.
• There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the mark
scheme should be used appropriately.
• All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be
awarded. Examiners should always award full marks if
deserved, i.e. if the answer matches the mark
scheme. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero
marks if the candidate’s response is not worthy of credit
according to the mark scheme.
• Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will
provide the principles by which marks will be awarded and
exemplification may be limited.
• When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the
mark scheme to a candidate’s response, the team leader must
be consulted.
• Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate
has replaced it with an alternative response.
 EDEXCEL GCE MATHEMATICS
General Instructions for Marking

1. The total number of marks for the paper is 40.

2. The Edexcel Mathematics mark schemes use the following types of marks:

• M marks: method marks are awarded for ‘knowing a method and attempting
to apply it’, unless otherwise indicated.
• A marks: Accuracy marks can only be awarded if the relevant method (M)
marks have been earned.
• B marks are unconditional accuracy marks (independent of M marks)
• Marks should not be subdivided.

3. Abbreviations

These are some of the traditional marking abbreviations that will appear in the mark
schemes.
• bod – benefit of doubt
• ft – follow through
• the symbol will be used for correct ft
• cao – correct answer only
• cso - correct solution only. There must be no errors in this part of the
question to obtain this mark
• isw – ignore subsequent working
• awrt – answers which round to
• SC: special case
• oe – or equivalent (and appropriate)
• dep – dependent
• indep – independent
• dp decimal places
• sf significant figures
•  The answer is printed on the paper
• The second mark is dependent on gaining the first mark

4. For misreading which does not alter the character of a question or materially
simplify it, deduct two from any A or B marks gained, in that part of the question
affected.

5. Where a candidate has made multiple responses and indicates which response
they wish to submit, examiners should mark this response.
If there are several attempts at a question which have not been crossed out,
examiners should mark the final answer which is the answer that is the most
complete.

6. Ignore wrong working or incorrect statements following a correct answer.

7. Mark schemes will firstly show the solution judged to be the most common
response expected from candidates. Where appropriate, alternatives
answers are provided in the notes. If examiners are not sure if an answer
is acceptable, they will check the mark scheme to see if an alternative
answer is given for the method used.
 General Principles for Further Pure Mathematics Marking
(But note that specific mark schemes may sometimes override these general
principles)

Method mark for solving 3 term quadratic:

1. Factorisation
( x 2 + bx + c) = ( x + p )( x + q ), where pq = c , leading to x = ...

(ax 2 + bx + c) = (mx + p )(nx + q ), where pq = c and mn = a , leading to

x = ...
2. Formula
Attempt to use the correct formula (with values for a, b and c)

3. Completing the square

2
 b
Solving x 2 + bx + c =0 :  x ±  ± q ±=
c 0, q ≠ 0 , leading to x = ...
 2
Method marks for differentiation and integration:
1. Differentiation
n −1
Power of at least one term decreased by 1. ( x → x )
n

2. Integration
n +1
Power of at least one term increased by 1. ( x → x )
n

Use of a formula
Where a method involves using a formula that has been learnt, the
advice given in recent examiners’ reports is that the formula should
be quoted first.
Normal marking procedure is as follows:
Method mark for quoting a correct formula and attempting to use
it, even if there are small errors in the substitution of values.
Where the formula is not quoted, the method mark can be gained
by implication from correct working with values but may be lost if
there is any mistake in the working.

Exact answers
Examiners’ reports have emphasised that where, for example, an
exact answer is asked for, or working with surds is clearly required,
marks will normally be lost if the candidate resorts to using
rounded decimals.
