    Students can still earn partial credit for correct processes despite a final incorrect answer.

    Marking Calculation Errors

    If working is shown, partial credit may be given for correct processes even if the answer is wrong.

    Marking Scheme for Multiple Choice Questions

    • Maximum number of responses per question: Exceeding the maximum number of responses results in extra incorrect answers cancelling correct answers.

    • Marking for Correct and Incorrect Answers:

      • 1 correct, 0 incorrect = 1 mark
      • 1 correct, 1 incorrect = 1 mark
      • 1 correct, 2 incorrect = 0 marks (incorrect answers cancel out correct answers)
      • 2 correct, 0 incorrect = 2 marks
      • 2 correct, 1 incorrect = 1 mark
      • 2 correct, 2 incorrect = 0 marks
    • 3 correct, 0 incorrect = 2 marks

    • 3 correct, 1 incorrect = 1 mark

    • 3 correct, 2 incorrect =0 marks (incorrect answers cancel out correct answers)

    • 3 correct, 3 incorrect = 0 marks (all answers incorrect)

    Marking Procedure for Calculations

    • Correct numerical answers receive full marks, unless "Show your working" is required.
    • Incorrect calculations: Process marks can be awarded for correct substitution/working, as indicated in the "Comments" column.

    Errors Carried Forward and Consequential Marking

    • Errors carried forward allowances are limited.
