Office Practice WASSCE (SC), 2018

General Comments

 

The standard of the question (paper) was very good. The candidates’ performance this year was high compared to the previous years. In the previous years, majority of the candidates found it difficult to answer the case study, it is not like that in this paper. That they did not answer the case study questions correctly is not that they did not understand them but they do not know the answers. There was a big improvement in this area. The questions on this paper were very clear and easy to understand.

 

Generally, the questions are good and the candidates’ performances were very encouraging. The marking scheme was very elaborate, while the instructions on the questions and the rubrics on the marking Scheme are explicit and easy to understand. It is also good to know that the subject is attracting more candidates. The questions were drawn from the syllabus and were comparable with the general standard of WASSCE.  The general performance of the candidates was better than the two previous years
