The WASSCE inching closer and students need to revise. To provide support, we are giving out these questions dubbed 2023 WASSCE Integrated Science July Mock Questions.

According to the 2022 WASSCE Chief Examiner’s Report, the following are some of the reasons why candidates fail Integrated Science:

• Lack of adequate preparation: Many candidates do not adequately prepare for the Integrated Science paper. This may be due to a number of factors, such as not starting to study early enough, not having access to the necessary resources, or not being able to understand the material.
• Poor understanding of the concepts: Many candidates do not have a good understanding of the concepts in Integrated Science. This may be due to poor teaching in school, or to the fact that the material is simply too difficult for some students.
• Inability to answer questions in a clear and concise manner: Many candidates are unable to answer questions in a clear and concise manner. This may be due to a lack of practice, or to the fact that they do not understand the question.
• Careless errors: Many candidates make careless errors in their answers. This may be due to rushing, or to not proofreading their work carefully.
