Method Marks (M) Focus
Cambridge mark schemes award method marks even when calculation slips occur. Always write full formula substitutions and clear intermediate steps before entering calculations.
Non-Calculator Fluency
Papers 1 and 2 test non-calculator mental arithmetic, fraction operations, surd simplification, and exact trigonometric values (30°, 45°, 60°). Practise mental multiplication without digital crutches.
Degree of Accuracy
Unless specified otherwise in the question, non-exact numerical answers must be given to 3 significant figures, and angles in degrees to 1 decimal place. Never round intermediate calculations prematurely.
