understand given answer and even if reply is not from marking scheme but correct
competency is enumerated by the candidate, marks should be awarded.

4. The Head-Examiner must go through the first five answer books evaluated by each

instructions given in the Marking Scheme. The remaining answer books meant for
evaluation shall be given only after ensuring that there is no significant variation in the
marking of individual evaluators.

5. Evaluators will mark ( √ ) wherever answer is correct. For wrong answer ‘X’ be marked.
Evaluators will not put right kind of mark while evaluating which gives an impression that
answer is correct and no marks are awarded. This is most common mistake which
evaluators are committing.

awarded for different parts of the question should then be totaled up and written in the left-
hand margin and encircled. This may be followed strictly.

marked as cross (X) and awarded zero (0) Marks.

of the other person. To do this, you need to express your needs, wants, opinions,
