About Electronics on DigiTransact Mastermind
Electrical basics, components and circuits, and digital electronics for WASSCE.
Each of the 8 Electronics skills carries its own SmartScore from 0 to 100, so progress is measured per topic rather than as one overall grade.
All 48 Electronics questions come with the written reasoning behind the answer, so a wrong attempt still teaches the method.
Electronics work is filed under Senior High, so you only see sets that match the stage you are studying.

Curriculum notes are a general guide to where this work normally sits. Always check the syllabus your school or examination body is currently using.
Learning outcomes
After working through the Electronics practice sets you should be able to:
- Current, Voltage & Resistance: The basic electrical quantities and their units.
- Electronic Components: Resistors, capacitors, diodes and transistors and what they do.
- Logic Gates: AND, OR and NOT gates and their truth tables.
- Objectives Set A: WASSCE-style objective questions across the Electronics syllabus.
Sample questions
Real questions taken from the Electronics question bank, shown with the working learners see after answering.
The logic gate whose output is 1 only when ALL its inputs are 1 is the
- AND gate
- OR gate
- NOT gate
- NOR gate
Working: An AND gate outputs 1 only when every input is 1.
The unit of electric current is the
- ampere
- volt
- ohm
- watt
Working: Current is the flow of charge and is measured in amperes (A) with an ammeter.
The unit of electrical power is the
- watt
- volt
- ohm
- ampere
Working: Power (P = V x I) is measured in watts.
