Question 1

You have learnt that your younger brother intends to involve himself in examination malpractice during the WASSCE. Write a letter to him warning him of the dangers of such an action and urging him to concentrate on his studies instead.

OBSERVATION

The candidate is required to write a letter to his younger brother warning him of the dangers of getting himself involved in examination malpractice during the W ASSCE and urging him to concentrate on his studies instead. Many candidates understood the requirements of the question, handling the two aspects involved.
Although this question was the most popular, many essays were short with a good number discussing less than three "dangers" and disposing of the "advice" aspect in just one sentence. No efforts were made to develop coherent and balanced paragraphs.
