MATHEMATICS PAPER 2 GRADE 12 NSC EXAMS PAST PAPERS AND MEMOS NOVEMBER 2018
NOTE:
If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt.
If a candidate has crossed out an attempt of a question and not redone the question, mark the crossed out version.
Consistent accuracy applies in ALL aspects of the marking memorandum. Stop marking at the second calculation error.
Assuming answers/values in order to solve a problem is NOT acceptable.
GEOMETRY
S
A mark for a correct statement (A statement mark is independent of a reason)
R
A mark for the correct reason (A reason mark may only be awarded if the statement is correct)
S/R
Award a mark if statement AND reason are both correct
