*Counsellor Fenyi's Assessment*
Ghana must commend this 2019 candidates for studying harder and performing better. The teachers who worked hard to produce this fruit also deserve some appreciation. However, any "serious tertiary institution" must organise entrance exams for these students before admitting them.
