    Hi there,

    I would like to know, do we still gain marks if we do not provide further explanation on the theory part questions for example,

    Identify and describe the three terms of efficiency that may be found in a capital market.

    – Weak form efficiency
    – Semi strong efficiency
    – Strong form efficiency

    no explanation given,do we still get maybe 3 marks for that? Thanks 😀

    I don’t know whether it would get three marks, but certainly some marks – you get the marks for identifying but obviously do not get the makes for describing)

    I would guess that identifying would more likely be half a mark for each, rather than one mark for each.
