    The ones in the marking schemes from the SEC, since they are the ones who set, run and correct the exams.

    exam-it have nothing to do with the exams. They are a business.

    Read the marking schemes carefully though. You don't always need every detail mentioned.

    The SEC marking schemes of course. They are the ones who run the exams.

    In terms of the answers being too long, if you don't give the information given in the marking scheme you won't get the marks.


    But having said that maybe you're looking at the marking scheme in terms of all of the answers given to a particular answer.

    If a question (in whatever subjects says ) 'list the reasons for ....... '

    and in the marking scheme the marks are stated as (4 x 4m) it means that you have to give four correct answers which are awarded four marks each.

    There may be 7 correct answers stated like this:

    answer a/ answer b/ answer c/ answer d/ answer e/ answer f/ answer g

    any four of the seven would be acceptable to get full marks.
