Your younger sister in SSII has written for your advice on what subjects she should study for the SSCE. As someone who knows her ability in the different subjects, write a letter to her giving advice on why she should choose certain subjects rather than others. There has been an outbreak of an epidemic in your area.

Dear Kemi,
I thank you for your letter dated 20th July. The content of the letter was well understood. I was very happy when I read that you wanted me to give you advice on the subjects to study for the SSCE.
I sincerely appreciate it that you realised so soon that it is good to request for advice on the subjects to offer. With your performance in your last promotion examination, I would like you to offer Arts subjects. I noticed that you are good at Arts. i Your grades in English Language, Literature in English, Christian Religious Knowledge, Yoruba and Economics are very impressive. Going through your past report cards since you started secondary school, one can very easily conclude that you are good at Arts subjects. Commercial subjects are your second best, but you are not good at Commercial subjects like Accounts, Commerce and other related subjects like Mathematics and Geography. Since you are not good at these subjects, I won't advise you to offer them.
Moreso, I won't advise you to study science subjects because of your deficiency in calculations. It is not possible to make a headway in the sciences without being good at Mathematics. Therefore, I would advise you to offer subjects that would enable you to study Law or Mass Communication in future. I know that you are going to fit into these two professions because you are good in Arts subjects and also you are the outspoken type. I can remember vividly that you told me that you won many prizes in debating competitions in which you represented your school. I know also that you have a flair for writing. I can see this clearly in your letters to me and whenever I have the chance to argue with you on topical national issues, I always see the polemical skill in you and the aggressiveness with which you logically put forward your points, even if they are not correct.
In view of my observation of your potentials, I would advise you to go for the legal profession. As a lawyer, you'll be a pride to our family. The following subjects are suitable for you: English Language, Literature in English, Government, C. R. K, Mathematics, Commerce, Fine Arts and Biology. Conclusively, Kemi. try as much as possible to make use of this piece of advice. You must study very hard so as to come out in flying colours in your SSCE.
Yours sincerely,
Kunle.
