MARK SCHEME for the May/June 2008 question paper

4024 MATHEMATICS
4024/02

Paper 2, maximum raw mark 100

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of
the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not
indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners meeting before marking began.
All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in
candidates scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills
demonstrated.
Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the report on the
examination.

CIE will not enter into discussions or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes.

CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2008 question papers for most IGCSE, GCE
Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses.

Type of mark
In general:
(i)

(ii)

M marks are awarded for any correct method applied to the appropriate numbers, even
though a numerical error may be involved.
a)

Once earned they cannot be lost.

b)

They are earned for a numerical statement which is usually explicit as regards the
quantity to be found.

c)

e.g. the use of a wrong formula, wrong trigonometrical ratio or misapplication of

Pythagoras is wrong method.

A marks are awarded for a numerically correct stage, for a correct result or for an
answer lying within a specified range.
a)

They are given only if the relevant M mark has been earned.

b)

They are not given for a correct result following an error in working.

(iii)

B marks are independent of method and are usually awarded for an accurate result or
statement.

(iv)

In graph or drawing questions some marks may carry a letter (e.g. G4 for drawing the
graph, Q1 for quality, L3 for drawing loci) to make their identification easier.

Abbreviations which may be used in mark schemes or in comments on scripts:
