    Hi sir

    i am struggling to understand the marking scheme. I have copied information from marking scheme that is given below

    Benefits of budgeting for Godel including:
    1. Planning and coordination – meeting overall strategy
    2. Responsibility
    3. Integration
    4. Motivation
    5. Evaluation

    1 per point made up to 6 marks

    Problems with budgeting at Godel including:
    1.Time-consuming and unnecessary
    2. Lack of recognition of planning failures
    3. Insufficient planning and operational analysis Impedes continuous improvement

    1 per point made up to 6 marks
    Maximum 11 marks

    I have copied information from marking scheme. can you please explain what does
    “1 per point made up to 6 marks” mean? does it mean 1 mark per point ?

    My 2nd question is that suggested marking scheme only mentioned 3 points for problems. How do i score 6 marks form 3 points. If you help me by giving few examples, it will be helpful.

    1 per point made up to 6 marks: if you make 4 points you get 4 marks; if you make 8 points you get 6 (max)

    Marking schemes are flexible. The examiner might list only three points but more points might also be valid. This is to your advantage.
