General Comments
The standard of the paper compared favourably with those of previous years. The questions were straight forward and also covered a wide range of the syllabus. The marking scheme was comprehensive and flexible.
The performance of the candidates was poor than the previous year with a candidates population of 1,089 which had a raw mean score of 10 and standard deviation 04.90 against a raw mean score of 09 and standard deviation of 04.12 for the Private Candidates 2015 which had a candidates population of 1,655.
