    Good afternoon sir,

    I was wondering, let’s say there is a question that is two part, one requires calculation and the other an evaluation on the preferred choice to be taken based on those calculation.

    Then in the course of those calculations I make an error but go ahead an use those erroneous figures in discussion, will I lose marks for the discussion part?

    You never lose marks twice.

    So whether your answer to the calculation is right or wrong, you will get full marks for the discussion provided it is a sensible discussion about the answer that you had arrived at.
