Marking in 2020

• Contacting the marker coordinator
• Dates for 2020
• Markathons

Notice board for errors and corrections in the Advanced solutions

• Sunday 20.2.9: Problem #8. The maximum points for this problem is 26, but some people have reported that they see 20 in the portal  – which means that it won’t accept any scores above 20. We’ve checked that the portal database in fact has 26, so we don’t understand why it might show some people (but not us) just 20. Please tell us if this happens to you.

The marking coordinator is Neema Kotonya

Dates

• Mon 27th January: final day for notifying us of your marker capacity.
• Jan 27-31: week for allocation of schools to markers. During this week your page on the portal will show the contact details and script numbers of your school(s).

• Feb 8-16: Marking takes place.
• Monday 17th February: Deadline for uploading points to the portal
• Monday 24 February: Advanced results announced
  • If you have been sent paper scripts with a stamped addressed envelope, please keep them with you till this day in case we need to include them in our shortlist; but on this day you can return them to the school.
