About Uganda UNEB UCE

In Upon successful completion of Ordinary Level classes, Ugandan students sit for the Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE) examination, which has been administered since 1980 and is currently managed by the Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB). In the UCE examination, students are required to sit for a minimum of eight and maximum of 10 subject examinations. Six subjects are mandatory: English, mathematics, geography or religious studies, biology, chemistry, and physics. For the remaining two to four examinations, students can choose from a range of cultural, technical, and other subjects.

UNEB evaluates UCE examination subjects on a 1 to 9 grading scale. Grades 1 and 2 are passes at the highest level, “Distinction.” Grades 3, 4, 5, and 6 are “Credit” passes. The last passing grades are 7 and 8, which are classified at the “Pass” level. A grade of 9 results in a failure. Again, this system of external examination and graded classification has its roots in Uganda’s colonial past and is common in many Commonwealth countries.

The Uganda National Examinations Board was established by an Act of Parliament in 1983, Cap 137 Laws of Uganda; legalizing all actions taken with effect from 1^st July 1980 when it effectively started operating. The Board is a body corporate mandated to conduct and manage examinations in Uganda for the end of the educational cycle at Primary and Secondary school level: and to conduct examination-related research.

STATUTORY FUNCTIONS OF UNEB

The functions of UNEB are to:

1. conduct primary, secondary, and such other examinations within Uganda as it may consider desirable in the public interest;
2. publish past examination papers;
3. award certificates to successful candidates in such examinations;
4. invite anybody or bodies outside Uganda, as it may think fit, and to jointly conduct academic and other examinations;
5. award acceptable certificates to successful candidates jointly with the invited bodies;
6. invite other bodies, as it may think fit, to conduct examinations and award acceptable certificates or diplomas;
7. advise anybody or bodies so invited under paragraph (f) upon the adoption of examinations necessary for the requirements of Uganda and to assist any such body or bodies to conduct such examinations;
8. make arrangements for the conduct of research and development of examination systems;
9. make rules regulating the conduct of examinations and for all purposes incidental thereto

Benefits of Studying Past Exam Papers

There are many benefits associated with using past exam papers including the following:

• Helps understand likely exam time length;
• Indicates typical number of questions;
• Identifies number of choices provided;
• Helps work out time required for each question;
• Identifies style of exam questions (short-answer, multiple choice or essays);
• Helps practice exam techniques;
• Helps identify key subject areas to focus on in revision.

One of the most significant benefits of practising past papers is that it helps students to understand the most likely topics to be included in the exam. As most courses have a broad range of associated topics, looking over past papers will help save a lot of potential time-wasting on subjects that are not likely to be on the paper thus making one’s revision much more efficient and productive.
