Majority of the candidates were unable to:
 -   classify specimens D(Pebbles or sandstone), E(Granite) and F(Marble) according to their mode of formation;
-    state the characteristics of each of specimensD(Peddles or sandstone) and E(Granite);
-    identify specimens I (Shears), J (Secateurs) and K (Spade);
-     describe specimen K (Spade);
-     identify specimens N (Elephant grass), O (Centrosema) and P (Tropical kudzu) by their common and botanical names;
-    state how each of specimens N (Elephant grass) and O (Centrosema) is propagated;
-    give the characteristics of specimen O (Centrosema).
Consequent upon the identified weaknesses observable in the candidates’ scripts, the Chief Examiners recommended that:

1. Agricultural Science teachers should emphasize the use of weed albums in the teaching of common and botanical names of weeds;
2. Agricultural science should be taught as a practical oriented subject in schools through laboratory activities, field trips, excursions etc.;
3. Only competent graduates of Agricultural Science should be saddled with the responsibility of teaching and assessment of learning.
