Candidate's Weakness
Some of the weaknesses observed in the candidates’ scripts are
- Many candidates listed items instead of stating in questions 1a(ii), 4a and 7.
- The arrangement of some candidates work was haphazard especially in question 8.
- Many candidates failed to understand the expectation of some questions hence wrote off point.
- Many candidates were very poor in the use of English to express themselves.
- Candidates performed poorly in questions 2, 3 and 7.
Suggested Remedies
- The candidates should be encouraged to study standard and recommended text books on commerce in their preparation for the examination.
- Teachers should teach students how to answer applied questions.
