Examiners must mark the last candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the first. Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by which marks will be awarded; exemplification/indicative content will not be exhaustive. When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the mark scheme to a candidate’s response, the response should be sent to review.  \n2 All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded; mark schemes should be applied positively. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the candidate’s response is not worthy of credit according to the mark scheme . If there is a wrong answer (or no answer) indicated on the answer line always check the working in the body of the script (and on any diagrams), and award any marks appropriate from the mark scheme.  \nQuestions where working is not required: In general, the correct answer should be given full marks.  \nQuestions that specifically require working: In general, candidates who do not show working on this type of question will get no marks – full details will be given in the mark scheme for each individual question.  \n3 Crossed out work  \nThis should be marked unless the candidate has replaced it with  \nan alternative response.  \n4 Choice of method  \nIf there is a choice of methods shown, mark the method that leads to the answer given on the answer line .  \nIf no answer appears on the answer line, mark both methods then award the lower number of marks.  \n5 Incorrect method  \nIf it is clear from the working that the “correct” answer has been obtained from incorrect working, award 0 marks. Send the response to review for your Team Leader to check.  \n6 Follow through marks  \nFollow through marks which involve a single stage calculation can be awarded without working as you can check the answer, but if ambiguous do not award.  \nFollow through marks which involve more than one stage of calculation can only be awarded on sight of the relevant working, even if it appears obvious that there is only one way you could get the answer given .  \n7 Ignoring subsequent work  \nIt is appropriate to ignore subsequent work when the","cbCaiaPvfVZwGkU9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiaPvfVZwGkU9","pdf",350463,24,"English","# General marking guidance\n## Candidate treatment and marking principles\n## Awarding marks and handling errors\n## Procedural rules for specific question types\n## Notation conventions used in the mark scheme","[{\"question\":\"What is the main principle for how examiners should mark candidates in this mark scheme?\",\"answer\":\"All candidates must receive the same treatment, and examiners should apply the mark scheme principles consistently, marking the last candidate exactly like the first.\"},{\"question\":\"How should examiners treat wrong answers or missing answers indicated on the answer line?\",\"answer\":\"Check the working in the script body and any diagrams, then award marks that are appropriate according to what the mark scheme credits.\"},{\"question\":\"What additional rules are given for probability and linear equations questions?\",\"answer\":\"Probability answers must be given as a fraction, percentage, or decimal with required precision, and cancelled fractions should follow the mark scheme rules; linear equation full marks can be gained when the solution on the answer line or the correct solution is unambiguously identified in the working.\"}]","Pearson Edexcel GCSE In Mathematics (1MA1) Higher (Calculator) Paper 3H - Mark Scheme (Results) - November 2021 | PDF"]
