in questions requiring multiple steps or calculations. Criteria for Partial and Full Marks Full marks are awarded when the answer aligns precisely with the expected response. Partial marks may be granted for responses that show understanding but lack complete accuracy, such as correct reaso
ration of experimental data. For instance, recent markschemes may place greater emphasis on evaluating the reasoning behind a student's conclusion or their ability to critique experimental methods. In contrast, the 2012 markscheme is more focused on correctness
