Hello Sir Mike,
Sir does the answer in P7 require perfection?
I mean if the answer is not perfect as per the question’s requirement, will it not earn any marks at all??
If a question asks you “What evidence would you expect to find …?” and your answer is a list of procedures that should be carried out to collect that evidence then, yes, your answer will earn NO marks
Why? Because you haven’t answered the question!
If I ask you “Are there 360 degrees in a circle?” and you start telling me how to walk in a circle and how to calculate the area of the circle and that the value of Pi to 20 decimal places is “3.14159265358979323846” and a radius is half a diameter …
You score zero because, no matter how much you know about circles, you haven’t answered my question
“does the answer in P7 require perfection?”
Only in so far as the answer must answer the question. Is that ‘perfection’?
That depends upon your own interpretation of the word perfection
OK?
