End of Unit 8 Mark Scheme
Mark scheme
End of Unit assessments are 30 marks, so you should allow 35 minutes.
The following marks are awarded for each question.
B Unconditional accuracy mark
M Method mark awarded for correct method or partial method
A Accuracy mark (awarded after a correct method or process; if no method or process
is seen then full marks for the question are implied but see mark scheme for more
details)
ft Incorrect values may be followed through from one step to the next provided that
the correct method is seen in each step and the only errors are arithmetic. This is
shown in mark schemes by putting a number in inverted commas
oe Or equivalent method or answer
cao Correct answer only
