# 6.1 How a question is marked

When you tackle a mathematical question, it is often helpful to think about how it would be marked.

To give yourself some practice at this, in this section you will:

- read and criticise sample solutions;

- then read what the tutor wrote about them; and

- see if any of the tutor's comments are applicable to your own solutions.
