Part 2: Comments regarding candidate’s performance

Very few students sit for this examination. Only six students registered for it in this particular session, and only two candidates actually sat for the examination, the other four absenting themselves from it

The two candidates were ill-prepared for the examination, as evidenced by theunsatisfactory results obtained in the examination.

We would like to augur that in future the number of candidates taking this exam increases, and that their performance shows a marked improvement over the present one.
