(i)Inadequate preparation for the examination:
The usual poor preparation for the examination continued to characterize candidates' performance in the subject. The only way to solve this problem is for candidates to read wider and gain enough knowledge to be able to answer the questions.
(ii)Skimpy answers:
Many candidates could not explain the points they advanced probably because of inadequate knowledge of the subject matter The solution to this is for the candidates to be more determined in their studies.
(iii) Inadequate interpretation of the questions:
A number of candidates could not interpret the questions they attempted correctly thereby giving irrelevant answers. This could be solved if candidates would make out time to read and understand the requirements of questions before attempting them.
