dc.description	PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES The performance reflected the level of difficulty of the paper quite appropriate for a final level. The paper in terms of standard was quite remarkable in my personal assessment and also gleaning from comments from my colleagues. In all honesty, some students showed lack of preparation for the paper as they had no clue as to the requirements and the demands of the examiners. Such students performed woefully. The usual recall questions were missing in the paper. Students who passed the paper really demonstrated preparedness for the exams and got rewarded for their efforts. The Institute should continue to maintain the standard and the level of difficulty for the professional level in order to get students to commit to learning as the only way that can guarantee their success.	en_US
dc.description.abstract	STANDARD OF THE PAPER The questions followed the usual pattern in terms of standard, quality and coverage of the final level syllabus. The paper afforded an average student who studied hard to be able to pass the exam easily. The paper patterned after the previous ones in terms of quality, level of difficulty appropriate to the final level. The technical standard of the paper was quite impressive. The paper sought to create discrimination among good students and poor ones as the object of all professional examinations the world over. In other words, good students pass and bad ones fail. The questions were properly moderated and for all practical purposes were devoid of errors. Clarity and unambiguity characterized all the questions and the mark allocation were quite appropriate for the requirement of the questions. I can confirm without any scintilla of doubt that the paper was good one and an average student who prepared very well was sure to pass. Any student who did not approach the exam with any seriousness was sure to fail given the spread of the questions over the syllabus and the level of difficulty appropriate for the level. The questions tested knowledge, skill and application of the students which the final level examinations seek to achieve as they prepare students to be practically-oriented and be able to think laterally. The marks allocated to each question and sub questions were fashioned in accordance with the weighting in the syllabus grid known by students and in line with previous examinations and the amount of energy students are required to spend on the basis of the marks.	en_US
