dc.description	NOVEMBER 2021 PROFESSIONAL EXAMINATION BUSINESS MANAGEMENT & INFORMATION SYSTEMS (PAPER 1.2) CHIEF EXAMINER’S REPORT, QUESTIONS & MARKING SCHEME	en_US
dc.description.abstract	STANDARD OF THE PAPER The Business Management and Information Systems paper was of standard quality. The question did indicate how many points candidates were required to explain/discuss for the allocated marks, thus making it easy for the candidates to tackle questions in the order they believed would inure to their advantage. The amount of work required by candidates to earn marks allocated to each question was commensurate with the needed effort. No question was either too loaded or substandard. There were no grammatical errors in the questions and no ambiguities either. The questions were fairly spread across the syllabus. PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES The overall performance of candidates was slightly above average. However, 55.17% of candidates passed the paper, which is a significant dip compared with the performance recorded in the May 2021 examinations of 75.66%. We attribute the relatively low performance of candidates to the fact that most of them did not seem to have prepared well for the examinations. They engaged in selective learning of some portions of the syllabus whilst completely neglecting to read other sections. In this circumstance, they performed very abysmally in those sections, with some scoring zero marks in some cases. High and low performers were spread across all centres and not concentrated at any given centre or centres. We did not observe any sign of copying or any form of collaboration at any particular centre.	en_US
