Results showed that the verbs were classified at different levels. The levels were all tackled in the exam which shows variety of questions except for the highest Porter level. The higher thinking level questions as specified by Porter and Bloom constituted around 30% of the exam. Similar studies targeting all national mathematics exams are recommended.</p> ER -
