Guidance notes for Sample Paper Mark Schemes Level 1 and Level 2 Notes: The mark scheme has been carefully constructed to avoid penalising candidates repeatedly for similar errors: 1) Principle of follow through applies throughout unless otherwise stated. This allows the candidates to gain credit for subsequent correct calculation based on a previous incorrect answer. 2) Units or numbers shown in brackets on the mark scheme are not required for the awarding of mark/s on the candidate’s paper. However, if a candidate states units they must be correct: eg 24(cm) means accept 24cm or 24 but not 24m eg (£)72.5(0) means accept £72.50 or £72.5 or 72.50 or 72.5 3) URT means unrounded, rounded or truncated; the underlining defines the acceptable limit of approximation: eg 860. 8652 URT (U is the unrounded version) the following are acceptable: 860 (T) or 861 (R) 860.8 (T) or 860.9 (R) or 860.86 (T) or 860.87 (R) or 860.865 (R) or 860.8652 (U) but not eg 900.

NB incorrect money format given as an answer should only be penalised once on the whole paper and will lose 1 mark. Do not penalise any subsequent incorrect format.
