NOTE:

  • If a candidate answers a question TWICE, mark only the FIRST attempt.
  • If a candidate has crossed out (cancelled) an attempt to a question and NOT redone the solution mark the crossed out (cancelled) version.
  • Consistent accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines, however it stops at the second calculation error.
  • No CA mark follows after a breakdown.
  • If the candidate presents any extra solution when reading from a graph, table, layout plan and map, then penalise for every extra item presented
