It was reported that questions on vectors were poorly handled by majority of the candidates. Candidates were also reportedly weak in the following areas:
- Reading from graphs
- Binomial probability distribution
Premature approximation was also noted to be one of the candidates’ weaknesses.
SUGGESTED REMEDIES
- Candidates should study the questions carefully before attempting them;
- Candidates should avoid premature approximations;
- Teachers should emphasize the weak areas of the syllabus by giving more class work and assignments.
- Teachers and candidates should endeavour to study past questions while preparing for examinations;
- Teachers were encouraged to participate in coordination meetings for the marking exercise of WASSCE
