pulled a mark

When someone has pulled a mark, they have screwed up by making a small error that is usually obvious in hindsight/review, and the error drastically affects the result in a negative way. Pulling a mark is common when advanced math is involved.

I pulled a mark yesterday on my math quiz when I forgot to add a negative sign at the beginning.
