These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the
0606/01
mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles.
© UCLES 2017
GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1:
•• the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question
•• the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question
•• the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts.
GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2:
Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions).
GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3:
Page 2 of 12
•• marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the
SPECIMEN
•• answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated
by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous.
GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4:
Rules must be applied consistently e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors.
GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5:
Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited
according to the quality of the candidate responses seen).

GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6:

Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in

mind.
The following notes are intended to aid interpretation of mark schemes in general, but individual mark schemes may include marks awarded for specific reasons
outside the scope of these notes.
Types of mark
When a part of a question has two or more ‘method’ steps, the M marks are in principle independent unless the scheme specifically says otherwise; and similarly
where there are several B marks allocated. The notation ‘dep’ is used to indicate that a particular M or B mark is dependent on an earlier mark in the scheme.
