CANDIDATES’ WEAKNESSES

Some of the weaknesses observed in the candidates’ scripts were:

- Candidates could not interpret the questions to know exactly what the questions required them to do.

- Some candidates were unable to express themselves in simple correct english that will bring out their knowledge of subject matter.

- Some candidates answered one question on different pages of the answer booklet.

SUGGESTED REMEDIES

- O’ level marketing text books should be made available to candidates preparing for the examination.

- Qualified teachers should be employed in schools to teach the subjects.

- Teachers should ensure that the syllabus is covered before the candidates’ seat for the examination.

- Candidates should endeavour to lean the rules of English grammar so as to enable them express their points clearly.

- Subject teachers should teach their students how to answer question based on the way the questions were asked so as to give the required response.
