Tips to Excelling in KCSE Biology: Biology Revision and Examination Tips.

Main reasons why Students Perform Poorly in the Biology Subject
- Confusion of biology concepts and terminologies.
- Inability to recall ideas about the subject content (subject matter). This could be attributed to lack of interest and concentration in class and poor study habits hence the meaning of the content is never grasped.
- Use of poor vocabulary-lack of good English command to express ideas e.g. the relaxation of erector pili muscles cause the hair to fall down instead of lie flat on the skin surface
- Assuming too much. This leads to giving sketchy, ambiguous, half answers or giving more information than asked which in most cases is irrelevant.
- Not following simple instructions and guidelines in answering questions (examination techniques) particularly graphical and structured questions. Students need to know that most structured questions require a deeper understanding of the concepts behind the question/experiment. Furthermore, most of the answers in the various subsections are tied i.e. the student has to get the first part of the question right first to guarantee him/her a correct response in the subsequent subsections of the question.
