What WASSCE Social Studies actually tests
This page is for a WASSCE student in Ghana, and for the parent sitting nearby. It answers one job: what the paper asks for in Social Studies. The next step is a free check of this subject, then an account if you want the result kept.
WASSCE Social Studies wants a point, a Ghana example, and a consequence. Long stories about "society" without an institution or a place do not collect the marks.
What should you open in Social Studies?
Stay inside these topics. They are the ones listed for WASSCE Social Studies on the subject page. A different book's chapter titles can wait.
- Environment. Environment is one block of the paper. Governance is a different block. Do not revise them in the same half hour.
- Governance. Governance is one block of the paper. Social Development is a different block. Do not revise them in the same half hour.
- Social Development. Social Development is one block of the paper. National Identity is a different block. Do not revise them in the same half hour.
- National Identity. National Identity is one block of the paper. Environment is a different block. Do not revise them in the same half hour.
What does a short week look like?
- Evening 1: Environment. Twenty to thirty minutes, then stop.
- Evening 2: Governance. Twenty to thirty minutes, then stop.
- Evening 3: Social Development. Twenty to thirty minutes, then stop.
- Evening 4: National Identity. Twenty to thirty minutes, then stop.
After one of those evenings, take the free Social Studies diagnostic. You will see On Track, Improving, or At Risk. That label is for you. It is not a WASSCE grade.
Where do you go next?
