3 Notes on the Mark Schemes. Alternative responses: There was often more than one correct response to a particular question and these published mark schemes do not give all possible alternatives. They generally show only the schemes for the most common responses given by candidates. They are not model answers but indicate what the Examiners accepted in this examination.. Error carried forward: In general, an error made in an early part of a question is penalised there but not subsequently, i.e. candidates are penalised once only, and can gain credit in later parts of a question by correct reasoning from an earlier incorrect answer.. Quantity algebra: The working for calculations is presented using quantity algebra in the mark schemes for Units PHY, PHY, PHY (Topics), PHY4, PHY5/0, and PHY6 but candidates are not required to do this in their answers. 4. Significant figures: Use of an inappropriate number of significant figures in the theory papers will normally be penalised only in show that questions where too few significant figures has resulted in the candidate not demonstrating the validity of the given answer. Use of an inappropriate number of significant figures will normally be penalised in the practical tests. In general candidates should nevertheless be guided by the numbers of significant figures in the data provided in the question. 5. Unit penalties: A wrong or missing unit in the answer to a calculation will generally lose one mark unless otherwise indicated. 6. Quality of written communication: Each theory paper will usually have or marks for the quality of written communication. The mark will sometimes be a separate mark and sometimes be an option in a list of marking points. Within the schemes: / indicates alternative marking point ( ) brackets indicate words not essential to the answer [ ] brackets indicate additional guidance for markers The following standard abbreviations are used: a.e. e.c.f. s.f. no u.e. arithmetic error ( mark) error carried forward (allow mark(s)) significant figures ( mark only where specified) no unit error
