The inadequacies in the performance of candidates were attributed to the following identified weaknesses:

• inability to convert the raw values using the given scale factors;

-   inability to use appropriate coordinates to evaluate the slopes of their graphs;

• matching of points on graphs;
• lack of adequate theoretical knowledge to answer the short structured questions;
• non adherence to given instructions e.g. starting a graph from origin (0.0)
• inability to express their answers in standard form;
• poor communicative expressions;
• poor computational skill;
• inability to define some basic concepts.

The suggested remedies were as follows:

-       Physics teachers should be encouraged to attend coordination meetings to help them become better experienced.
-       Candidates should prepare more adequately for examinations.

• Schools should establish enough practical works for candidates.
• Ministries of Education should organize workshops in collaboration with WAEC especially in Science, Mathematics and English Language.
• There should be adequate coverage of Physics curriculum by teachers before examinations.
• Candidates should develop better reading habits.
