XAMINER’S GENERAL COMMENTS The overall performance of candidates was generally not impressive. Most of the candidates did not seem to have prepared well for the examinations.

STANDARD OF THE PAPER & PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES The Business Management and Information Systems paper was of standard quality. The questions were fairly spread across the syllabus. The performance of candidates was generally not good even though it is a marginal improvement upon that of May 2018. This can largely be attributed to inadequate preparation on the part of candidates. There appears to be a disconnection between the private study centres and the Institute regarding the preparations required of candidates.
