Each essay is double marked. For each scale, if thetwo scores awarded are the same or occupy adjacent positions on the scale, thescores are combined to give the final mark. If there is a larger discrepancy inthe scores on either of the two scales, the essay is marked for a third time,and the final mark awarded is checked by the BMAT Assessment Manager.
The composite mark for the quality of English isderived by combining the two scores as follows: AA = A,
AC = B, CC = C, CE = D, EE = E. The composite markfor the quality of content is derived by calculating
the average of the two scores.
