2024 BECE Mock 1 Social Studies Questions and Answers—SECTION B Sample Questions from Mock 1

FAMILY LIFE – QUESTION 3

  1. Explain four factors of high birth rate in Ghana. [12 marks]
  2. Enumerate four cognitive changes that occur in adolescents. [4 marks]
  3. State four advantages of the nuclear family. [4 marks]

Most students who answered this question performed poorly because they are used to questions that require them to explain or outline physical and psychological changes in adolescents.

Some students were also only able to list factors related to the high birth rate in Ghana without being able to explain them.

A question like “State four advantages of the nuclear family” gave students a tough time. In Social Studies, a “STATE” question like this demands self-explaining sentences of not less than 10 words; however, students in many instances will list one- or three-word phrase answers and end up losing all the marks allocated.
