Mastering the Art of the Selective Answer Sheet
- The Underline is Your Friend: Remember that highlighter you used to draw mustaches on your history textbook pictures? Resurrect it! Brutally underline key terms and phrases in the question. Respond only to those underlined gems, and ignore the rest like it's yesterday's news.
- Short and Sweet is the Name of the Game: Who needs essays when you have one-sentence wonders? Craft concise answers that hit the bullseye of the question. Bonus points for key terms sprinkled in like magic fairy dust.
- The Power of Repetition: Didn't quite grasp that complex physics equation? No worries! Repeat it in your answer verbatim. Maybe if you confuse the examiner enough, they'll just award you a participation grade for sheer effort (hey, it's worth a shot, right?).
Important Note: This strategy may not guarantee a Nobel Prize nomination, but it might just land you in that C Plain sweet spot.
Tip: Check back if you skimmed too fast.
Befriending the Subject You Can Almost Tolerate
Let's be honest, not every subject tickles your fancy. But here's the trick: find the subject you hate the least and become its reluctant champion. Shower it with attention (well, the minimal amount required) in the weeks leading up to the exam. You might be surprised by the hidden knowledge you unearth.
QuickTip: Use CTRL + F to search for keywords quickly.
Pro Tip: Strategic cramming is your best friend. Focus on the topics most likely to appear in the exam. Who needs well-rounded knowledge when you can be a master of trivia?
QuickTip: Don’t skim too fast — depth matters.

The Art of the Calculated Guess
Sometimes, even selective answering and subject-specific affection won't save you. But fret not, for there's a secret weapon in your arsenal: the calculated guess. Here's how it works:
- Eliminate the Obvious Duds: Cross out any answer choices that make you snort milk out of your nose due to their sheer ridiculousness.
- The Power of Similarity: Look for answer choices that echo keywords from the question. They might just be the real deal in disguise.
- Spreading the Love (or Lack Thereof): If you're truly clueless, distribute your answers evenly amongst the remaining choices. There's a chance you'll hit the jackpot (or at least avoid a big fat zero).
Disclaimer: The calculated guess is a gamble, play at your own risk.
Remember, a KCSE C Plain is a stepping stone, not a dead end. With a little strategy and, well, maybe a sprinkle of luck, you'll conquer this hurdle and emerge on the other side...ready to take on the exciting world of higher learning (or maybe a well-deserved nap).
