Lagooz SS3 Students writing 2017 Mock Examination
Over the years, Mock examinations have played an important role in the Nigerian Education System at all levels. It has been viewed as a strong indicator of the leamer's
performance in the final examinations administered by the
national examining body, West African Examinations Council (WAEC) and National Examination Council (NECO).
Doing mocks early enough in the year gives you time before the real
thing to target areas that need improvement. Mock exam results can
identify how best to spend the coming months for students.
Once these areas are identified, it is then a case of putting in the
hours. It is not enough to think about what you need to do better, it is
the action and the doing that really makes a difference.
Being comfortable and confident enough to ask someone else for help, be it a teacher, parent or carer, is a big part of having a growth mindset.
Mock exams can be used as a way of getting students to feel comfortable
receiving feedback, which paves the way for further improvement and
learning.
In summary
Mock exams, if framed right, can be incredibly beneficial for
students. Helping them to see that is part of the challenge. They can
help students to start revising early, to practise effective revision
strategies, to improve their knowledge, to familiarise themselves with
pressure, and act as a guide moving forward.
