    At the front of the Geography paper it says Disallowed marks, What exactly does this refer to ?

    It's most likely from the shortquestions, you only need to do a certain amount so if you do extra, they mark you on your best ones only. Or you may have done say, two questions from physical when you only need to do one, so they mark your best one and disallow the other one.

    As Kremin says and it's not just in Geography, it's in all exams.

    For the SEC, marks that do not count should have square brackets around them, [5] so that they are not counted up in final totals.
