Question 1a (Notes)

The marking scheme says:
"You will be awarded up to 15 marks for content points.MARK TO A MAXIMUM OF 15 FOR CONTENT POINTS."

I don't get.
1 Exactly how many points am I suppose to write ?
2 What if I write more or less than 15 points. How much will I score then ?

Question 1b (summary)1 How many points (summarized) here ?
2 Will I be penalized if I miss a point ?

u can write more than 15 points, the marking scheme itself has more than 15 points
the advantage is that if one of ur points is wrong but u write an extra point that is correct, u can still be awarded full
the disadvantage is that u will waste time
u have to write 15 points, but can add more
u wont be awarded extra marks if u write extra points
however, marks will be deducted if u write less than 15 points

Ok now lecture time :p
1) u have to write 15 or more than 15 points to score full marks :)
But I would say find as many points as u can and write them all even if they exceed 15 points as this would make u remain on the safe side
For example, if i write 18 points which I think are correct and accidentally 3 of my points out of 18 are wrong, I would still be awarded with 15 full marks( my teacher told me this and it did worked for me :) )

2) for summary, its not compulsory to add all 15 points!! Examiner has awarded u for the content points before and now he is checking ur summary skills!! Like use of own words, proper tense usage, use of proper conjunctions etc. Even if u write 10 points in summary, they wouldnt penalize u for this reason!
