I heard ppl tell me the way cambridge markers mark n level or o
level papers is very unfair and biased. if u put raffles sec, they
mark more strictly. if u put neighbourhood sch they mark less
strictly. they tend to categorise people as smarter or less smart..
and make the cream of the crop shine.. they pay more attention the
best schools papers and give shit to the lower schools? Isn't
it?
Cambridge markers have to follow strictly according to the
marking scheme.
For Maths, it is very straightforward and specific. So, there is
little scope for the Cambridge markers to exercise their
biasedness. For example, the question requires the candidate to
correct the answer to 3 sig fig, the Cambridge marker cannot give
the mark to the student from the top school when his or her answer
has not been corrected to 3 sig fig.
