Bofd?

Hey, i had my business studies unit 2 paper sent back a few months ago,
it was interesting to note that on numerous occasions the examiner wrote "BOFD", this "BOFD" is not explained anywhere in the mark scheme, and slo, the teacher has no idea what it is :confused:

,
you guys have any ideas?

i thought maybe it meant bringing of further detail ?

They're not allowed to put comments or reasons on them, as that way if you can prove they are wrong they get in trouble and the exam system is questioned. That's what I've been told by teachers and the exams person at my school.

Have there been any 'BOFD' comments where you got 0 marks in that part of the question?

Then it doesn't make any sense. Benefit of doubt is more towards where the examiner feels your answer can be interpreted in two different ways, but has given you the mark. So you got zero in total for that part? :confused:
