Despite boys’ better performance in the previous two sets of examinations, Primary leaving examinations and Uganda Certificate of Education, female candidates at UACE 2020 have proved to the academic world that what a man can do, a woman does better.
The UNEB Executive Secretary, Dan Odong said while releasing the 2020 UACE results at state house Nakasero, that female candidates though fewer , performed better than their male counterparts.
 “In terms of percentages, female candidates performed better than their maie counterparts at the principal level pass (A-E) in Árts (Humanities), Mathematics and Physics. Male candidates were better in Agriculture, Chemistry, Biology, Art, and General Paper.” Odongo said.
According to Odongo, the percentage passes at upper levels of 3  and 2 principle passes are higher.
He added that the entry of females for science subjects and mathematics have remained lower as compared to that of male candidates.
“Female entries for the Sciences and Mathematics have remained far lower than that of the males. Only 26.7% sat for Mathematics, 6.9% for Physics, 13.2% for Chemistry; and 12.3% for Biology,” he added.
Meanwhile, the board did not register any candidates at Luzira prison.
