PERFORMANCE OF CANDIDATES
The performance of candidates was average and better as compared to the previous sitting.
The pass rate was 52.17%. High performers were evenly spread across all centres and so
also were low performers. There were no signs of copying in any centre. A small number of
candidates exhibited a high sense of preparedness while majority were not well prepared.
The level of preparedness of candidates was mixed because while a few others performed
very well others performed poorly.
The numbers of candidates answering each question were as follows:
Question 1 366 attempted
Question 2 373 attempted
Question 3 436 attempted
Question 4 475 attempted
Question 5 167 attempted
Question 6 348 attempted
Question 7 347 attempted
The total number of candidates that took part was 531 |

EXAMINER’S GENERAL COMMENTS
The overall standard of answers was mixed. Some candidates failed to attempt the required
number of questions resulting in struggling to achieve an overall passing mark as a result.
In my opinion some of the questions were difficult for the level and some of the candidates
were not well prepared.
STANDARD OF THE PAPER
The standard of the question paper was good and candidates were asked to answer five (5)
questions out of seven. The mark allocations followed the weight as stated in the syllabus
and marks were allocated to all sub-questions. Some of the questions were overloaded.
There were no ambiguities in the paper. The questions were clear, well typed and the
instructions were also clearly stated. The questions were evenly spread over the topics in
the syllabus. |
