Salesmanship WASSCE (SC), 2017

CANDIDATES’ WEAKNESSES

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

 

-           Insufficient knowledge of the subject matter as the candidates could not satisfactorily attempt some questions.
-           Some candidates were unable to maximize the spaces provided in answering each question.
-           Some candidates misinterpreted questions and commands. They found it difficult to distinguish between “State” and “List”.

SUGGESTED REMEDIES

 

  1. Candidates should study standard text books on salesmanship, Marketing and others as recommended in preparing for the examination.
  2. Students should be exposed to new WAEC answer scripts by their teachers so as to maximize spaces provide for each question.
  3. Teacher should expose students to the expectations of different question commands.
