Eight multiple choice and two written, marked as you go. Free, no account.
Comprehension
Answer: B. Use a fact from the passage to answer the question that was asked
The mark follows the passage. The answer takes the fact the question named and says it in the language of the entry. Copying the whole paragraph never shows which fact was asked for. A similar story from memory, or an opinion the passage does not contain, answers a different text.
Comprehension
Answer: B. The paper is testing the language of the entry
The essay and the comprehension are in the language on the entry. English belongs in a translation task, on the side the question names. A right idea in the wrong language does not show the sentence the marker can credit. The marker can read the answer. The answer is in the wrong language for this part.
Composition
Answer: B. One, then the compulsory parts
The scheme says you answer one composition. Comprehension, translation, and language and usage are still compulsory. A second composition does not repair a blank translation. If the question paper in the hall asks for a different number, follow the question paper. This page describes the scheme. It does not replace that file.
Composition
Answer: A. A greeting, the message the task asked for, and a close
A letter needs a greeting, the message that answers the task, and a close. The whole letter is in the language of the entry. A list of greetings never says why you wrote. A message in English does not show that language. A close with nothing before it is not a letter.
Grammar
Answer: B. Keeping the meaning, including who acted and any time or place
Translation moves a sentence between English and the language of the entry. Keep who did the action, and keep a time or a place that was already there. A longer sentence is not a better one. A reason the original never gave, or a change of person, is a different meaning, so it loses the mark.
Grammar
Answer: C. Asante Twi and Akuapem Twi are separate entries
You sit the language on your entry. Asante Twi and Akuapem Twi are separate. Fante is not Twi. Ga is not Dangme. Mixing two varieties in one answer shows a different language from the one being tested. The question paper, not a guess, is the variety that counts.
Literature
Answer: A. The saying, and the meaning in a situation
The saying is the memory. The meaning, in the situation the question gave, shows you know when the proverb fits. The saying alone is half an answer when both were asked. A situation with no saying has not named the proverb. A story title is a different task.
Culture
Answer: B. The custom belongs to a people, and communities differ
Ghanaian Language and Culture asks which people the custom belongs to. A greeting, a rite or a festival is not the same everywhere. Naming the people shows which custom you mean. If you are not sure, leave it out rather than guess. A place name that is not those people does not earn the point.
State two things a comprehension answer must do. (2 marks)

Yes, on this page: type your answer and the coach marks it with AI and shows you where the marks are, a few a day with no account. Inside glearn, every answer you write.
No. You need one only to save your score and to keep going once the free marking for the day is used.
Nobody can promise that. These test the same topics and the same kind of thinking the BECE does, which is what practice is for. There are thousands more across BECE and WASSCE inside glearn; this page shows a small sample.
