Marking Scheme
Lokesh sir unlimited study zone @9425184292
Strictly Confidential
(For Internal and Restricted use only)
Secondary School Examination, 2024
SUBJECT NAME MATHEMATICS (BASIC) (Q.P. CODE 430/5/2)

General Instructions: -
1 You are aware that evaluation is the most important process in the actual and correct
assessment of the candidates. A small mistake in evaluation may lead to serious problems
which may affect the future of the candidates, education system and teaching profession.
To avoid mistakes, it is requested that before starting evaluation, you must read and
understand the spot evaluation guidelines carefully.
2 “Evaluation policy is a confidential policy as it is related to the confidentiality of the
examinations conducted, evaluation done and several other aspects. Its leakage to
public in any manner could lead to derailment of the examination system and affect
the life and future of millions of candidates. Sharing this policy/document to anyone,
publishing in any magazine and printing in News Paper/Website etc. may invite action
under various rules of the Board and IPC.”
3 Evaluation is to be done as per instructions provided in the Marking Scheme. It should not
be done according to one’s own interpretation or any other consideration. Marking Scheme
should be strictly adhered to and religiously followed. However, while evaluating, answers
which are based on latest information or knowledge and/or are innovative, they may
be assessed for their correctness otherwise and due marks be awarded to them. In
class-X, while evaluating two competency-based questions, please try to understand
given answer and even if reply is not from marking scheme but correct competency
is enumerated by the candidate, due marks should be awarded.
4 The Marking scheme carries only suggested value points for the answers.
These are in the nature of Guidelines only and do not constitute the complete answer. The
students can have their own expression and if the expression is correct, the due marks
should be awarded accordingly.
5 The Head-Examiner must go through the first five answer books evaluated by each
evaluator on the first day, to ensure that evaluation has been carried out as per the
instructions given in the Marking Scheme. If there is any variation, the same should be zero
after deliberation and discussion. 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.
6 Evaluators will mark(✓) wherever answer is correct. For wrong answer CROSS ‘X” be
marked. Evaluators will not put right (✓)while evaluating which gives an impression that
answer is correct and no marks are awarded. This is most common mistake which
evaluators are committing.
7 If a question has parts, please award marks on the right-hand side for each part. Marks
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.
8 If a question does not have any parts, marks must be awarded in the left-hand margin and
encircled. This may also be followed strictly.
9 If a student has attempted an extra question, answer of the question deserving more marks
should be retained and the other answer scored out with a note “Extra Question”.
10 No marks to be deducted for the cumulative effect of an error. It should be penalized only
once.

11 A full scale of marks (0-80) (example 0 to 80/70/60/50/40/30 marks as given in Question
Paper) has to be used. Please do not hesitate to award full marks if the answer deserves it.
12 Every examiner has to necessarily do evaluation work for full working hours i.e., 8 hours
every day and evaluate 20 answer books per day in main subjects and 25 answer books
per day in other subjects (Details are given in Spot Guidelines).This is in view of the reduced
syllabus and number of questions in question paper.
13 Ensure that you do not make the following common types of errors committed by the
Examiner in the past:-
● Leaving answer or part thereof unassessed in an answer book.
● Giving more marks for an answer than assigned to it.
● Wrong totaling of marks awarded on an answer.
● Wrong transfer of marks from the inside pages of the answer book to the title page.
● Wrong question wise totaling on the title page.
● Wrong totaling of marks of the two columns on the title page.
● Wrong grand total.
● Marks in words and figures not tallying/not same.
● Wrong transfer of marks from the answer book to online award list.
● Answers marked as correct, but marks not awarded. (Ensure that the right tick mark is
correctly and clearly indicated. It should merely be a line. Same is with the X for
incorrect answer.)
● Half or a part of answer marked correct and the rest as wrong, but no marks awarded.
14 While evaluating the answer books if the answer is found to be totally incorrect, it should be
marked as cross (X) and awarded zero (0)Marks.
15 Any unassessed portion, non-carrying over of marks to the title page, or totaling error
detected by the candidate shall damage the prestige of all the personnel engaged in the
evaluation work as also of the Board. Hence, in order to uphold the prestige of all concerned,
it is again reiterated that the instructions be followed meticulously and judiciously.
16 The Examiners should acquaint themselves with the guidelines given in the “Guidelines for
spot Evaluation” before starting the actual evaluation.
17 Every Examiner shall also ensure that all the answers are evaluated, marks carried over to
the title page, correctly totaled and written in figures and words.
18 The candidates are entitled to obtain photocopy of the Answer Book on request on payment
of the prescribed processing fee. All Examiners/Additional Head Examiners/Head
Examiners are once again reminded that they must ensure that evaluation is carried out
strictly as per value points for each answer as given in the Marking Scheme.

Common questions

Powered by AI

Examiners should ensure all answers are assessed, with marks carried over to the title page, properly totaled, and written both in figures and words. Unassessed portions or calculation errors must be identified, as they affect the evaluator's standing and the board's reputation .

Evaluators should not mark correct answers with a tick, as it gives an impression that no marks are awarded. Marks for each part of a question should be given on the right-hand side and totaled on the left-hand margin. For questions without parts, marks should be encircled in the left-hand margin. Extra questions should prioritize answers with higher marks, assigning zero to others. Errors should only penalize once, and all evaluation should reflect the full marks scale. Unassessed parts or incorrect totals damage evaluator prestige, so instructions must be followed meticulously .

Examiners must ensure each page is fully assessed and marks are transferred accurately to the title page. Implementing checks, using clear and consistent annotations, and following evaluation guidelines strictly minimizes errors. Regular audits and peer reviews can further help detect and resolve discrepancies early .

For the quadratic polynomial 6x² + 37x - (p - 2), if one zero is the reciprocal of the other, the product of the zeroes should equate to 1 (since a reciprocal relationship implies xy = 1). Using the relation obtained by Vieta's formulas, xy = c/a, we get 1 = [-(p-2)]/6, which can be solved to find p = 8 .

To verify the relationship between zeroes and coefficients, find the zeros of the quadratic polynomial, such as 6x² - 7x - 3. If the zeroes are α and β, calculate α+β and αβ. These should match the relationships: α+β = -b/a and αβ = c/a for a polynomial ax² + bx + c .

To find the area not accessible to a horse tied at one corner of an equilateral triangle field with a 14 m rope, calculate the area of two circular sectors with a radius of 14m that overlap the equilateral triangle. Subtract the accessible area (from the circles) from the total area of the 20m side triangle to find the restricted area .

Evaluators should prevent common errors such as leaving parts unassessed, providing more marks than assigned, incorrect totaling, and wrong mark transfers. Every part should be evaluated and errors addressed only once to maintain the examiner's reputation .

If x = 2/1 is a root of x² + kx - 4/5 = 0, substitute x = 2 into the equation to find k. This gives 4 + 2k - 4/5 = 0, solving for k yields k = 4/5 - 4, which can then be calculated to find the specific value .

Correct answers should not be marked with a tick to avoid misinterpretation that the response has been overlooked or no marks awarded. This ensures clarity that evaluations are meticulous and consistent, maintaining evaluator credibility and preventing disputes .

The principle that tangents from an external point to a circle are equal supports solving problems like proving the circle's circumscribed quadrilateral properties or deriving solutions involving tangent lengths. This congruence helps ensure symmetry in geometric constructs and solutions .
