1 MATHEMATICS INTRODUCTION The public assessmet of this subject is based o the Curriculum ad Assessmet Guide (Secodary 4 6) Mathematics joitly prepared by the Curriculum Developmet Coucil ad the Hog Kog Examiatios ad Assessmet Authority. Cadidates have to refer to the Guide for the kowledge, uderstadig, skills ad attitudes they are required to demostrate i the assessmet. The curriculum comprises a Compulsory Part ad a Exteded Part. Cadidates takig the HKDSE Mathematics Examiatio may choose to take either the Compulsory Part oly or the Compulsory Part plus oe of the two modules of the Exteded Part. ASSESSMENT OBJECTIVES The assessmet objectives of the Compulsory Part are to test the cadidates : 1. kowledge of the mathematical facts, cocepts, skills ad priciples preseted i the Curriculum ad Assessmet Guide;. familiarity with ad use of mathematical symbols; 3. ability to use appropriate mathematical techiques for solvig a variety of problems; ad 4. ability to commuicate ideas ad to preset argumets mathematically. The assessmet objectives of Module 1 (Calculus ad Statistics) of the Exteded Part are to test the cadidates : 1. uderstadig of the cocepts, priciples ad methods i Calculus ad Statistics preseted i the Curriculum ad Assessmet Guide; ad. ability to apply appropriate techiques i Calculus ad Statistics for solvig a variety of problems. The assessmet objectives of Module (Algebra ad Calculus) of the Exteded Part are to test the cadidates : 1. uderstadig of the cocepts, priciples ad methods i Algebra ad Calculus preseted i the Curriculum ad Assessmet Guide; ad. ability to apply appropriate techiques i Algebra ad Calculus for solvig a variety of problems. 018-HKDSE-MATH 1

2 MODE OF ASSESSMENT The mode of public assessmet i the Compulsory Part is show below: Compoet Weightig Duratio Public Examiatio Paper 1 Paper Covetioal questios Multiple-choice questios 65% 35% ¼ hours 1¼ hours The mode of public assessmet i Module 1 (Calculus ad Statistics) is show below: Compoet Weightig Duratio Public Examiatio Covetioal questios 100% ½ hours The mode of public assessmet i Module (Algebra ad Calculus) is show below: Compoet Weightig Duratio Public Examiatio Covetioal questios 100% ½ hours PUBLIC EXAMINATION Compulsory Part The examiatio will cosist of two papers: 1 Paper 1 ( hours) (65%) 4 This paper will cosist of two sectios i which all the questios are to be attempted. Sectio A will cosist of questios o the Foudatio Topics of the Compulsory Part together with the Foudatio Part of the Secodary 1-3 Mathematics Curriculum. Sectio B will cosist of questios o the Compulsory Part together with the Foudatio Part ad the No-Foudatio Part of the Secodary 1-3 Mathematics Curriculum. Sectio A will further be divided ito two parts. Sectio A(1) (35 marks) will cosist of 8 to 11 elemetary questios. Sectio A() (35 marks) will cosist of 4 to 7 harder questios. Sectio B (35 marks) will cosist of 4 to 7 questios. 018-HKDSE-MATH

Sectio A ( 3 of the paper mark) will cosist of questios o the Foudatio Topics of the Compulsory Part together with the Foudatio Part of the Secodary 1-3 Mathematics Curriculum. Sectio B ( 1 3 of the paper mark) will cosist of questios o the Compulsory Part together with the Foudatio Part ad the No-Foudatio Part of the Secodary 1-3 Mathematics Curriculum. All questios i the paper will be multiple-choice questios. Notes: 1. Cadidates are ot expected to perform legthy maipulatios.. I calculatios cadidates are expected to give aswers to appropriate degrees of accuracy. 3. Electroic calculators ad mathematical drawig istrumets may be used i the examiatio. 4. SI ad metric uits will be used i the examiatio wherever appropriate. 5. Cadidates should ote the commo otatios to be used i mathematics examiatio papers. Module 1 (Calculus ad Statistics) 1 The examiatio will cosist of oe paper of hours duratio. The paper will be divided ito two sectios i which all the questios are to be attempted. Sectio A (50 marks) will cosist of 8-1 short questios. Sectio B (50 marks) will cosist of 3-5 log questios. Notes: 1. Kowledge of the subject matter i the Compulsory Part together with the Foudatio Part ad the No-Foudatio Part of Secodary 1-3 Mathematics Curriculum is assumed.. I calculatios cadidates are expected to give aswers to appropriate degrees of accuracy. 3. Electroic calculators ad mathematical drawig istrumets may be used i the examiatio. 4. Statistical tables will be prited i the questio paper where appropriate. 5. SI ad metric uits will be used i the examiatio wherever appropriate. 6.
