dc.description	NOTABLE STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES OF CANDIDATES Strengths In this diet, candidates performed better with the scenario questions than in the previous examination. Candidates had the opportunity to analyze and discuss scenario questions, but their strength mainly was attempting questions that required short answers. The questions that required short answers were popular even though some candidates deviated. This means if the Institute should consider objective questions in future, candidates will perform well. Most candidates have a fair appreciation of the law of contract and the court system than the areas of Constitutional law, Companies Act and Labour Law which were also tested in this diet. Weaknesses Several candidates did not follow the instruction that candidates should ‘Answer All Questions'. The point here is that the questions unanswered make the candidate automatically lose marks and reduce their chance of passing. This can be largely attributed to candidates' inadequate preparation for the examinations or learning only some topics in the syllabus. Most candidates were not very familiar with the Companies Act, covering about 45% of the syllabus. The candidate should therefore cover the entire syllabus to be able to attempt at least all the questions and should also be encouraged to practice time management during examinations.	en_US
dc.description.abstract	EXAMINER’S GENERAL COMMENTS AND PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES The performance by candidates from a pass rate of 83.95% in May 2021 declined to 54.77% in November 2021. However, the general performance of candidates was good. Out of 241 candidates who registered, 132 passed the paper. The average marks for most of the questions answered in November 2021 were 55%, compared to the last diet in May 2021 of about 60%. STANDARD OF THE PAPER The standard of the paper was good and was not over-burdening on the candidates. The depth and weight of questions, the time allocation and the clarity of the questions met the requirements of the syllabus. There was no correction of typographical mistake during the coordination of the examination, and the marks allocated in the suggested solutions provided were maintained.	en_US
