The West African Examinations Council (WAEC), Nigeria, has released the results of the Computer-Based West African Senior School Certificate Examination (CB-WASSCE) for private candidates, 2025-first series.
The Head of National Office (HNO), WAEC, Nigeria, Dr. Amos Dangut announced the results in a statement issued by the Public Affairs Department on Friday, March 21, 2025.
According to the HNO, 9,439 candidates, representing a 12.86 percent increase, when compared with the 2024 entry figure, entered for the examination, while 9,054 candidates sat the examination at 143 centres spread across Nigeria.
“Among the candidates that sat the examination, 25 candidates, with varying degrees of special needs were registered for the examination. Out of this number, six were visually challenged, one had impaired hearing and six were Albinos. All candidates with special needs were adequately taken care of in the administration of the examination.
“Of the total number of 9,054 candidates that sat the examination, 4,384 were males while 4,670 were females, representing 48.42 percent and 51.58 percent respectively.
“Out of the total number of candidates that sat the examination, 8,651 candidates, representing 95.55 percent have their results fully processed and released while 403 candidates, representing 4.45 percent have a few of their subjects still being processed due to some errors traceable to them. Concerted efforts are being made to speedily complete the processing to enable all the affected candidates to get their results fully processed and released, subsequently”, Dr. Mangut revealed.
The analysis of statistics of candidates’ performance showed that out of the 9,054 candidates that sat the examination, 3,388 candidates representing 37.42 percent obtained credit and above in a minimum of five subjects (with or without English Language and/or Mathematics); 2,441 candidates representing 26.96 percent obtained credit and above in a minimum of five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.
Of this number, 1,291 at 52.89 percent were male candidates, while 1,150 at 47.11 percent were female candidates. The percentage of candidates in this category in the WASSCE for private candidates in year 2023 and 2024-first series, that is, those who obtained credit and above in a minimum of five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics, were 23.99 percent and 30.95 percent respectively. Thus, there is a marginal decrease of 3.99 percent in performance in this regard.
“56 candidates’ results, representing 0.62 percent of the total number of candidates that sat the examination, were withheld in connection with various allegations of examination malpractice. Candidates whose results were withheld are advised to visit the WAEC Notice of Examination Malpractice Portal at: https//waecinternational.org/complaints to make representations with regard to allegations bordering on examination malpractice. All reported cases will be investigated including exhibits obtained, alongside candidates’ representations lodged on the portal. These will be evaluated and reports presented to the appropriate Committee of the Council for determination. The Committee’s decision(s) will be communicated directly to the affected candidates.
“Candidates may check their results by visiting www.waecdirect.org to ascertain their status before visiting the Digital Certificate platform (www.waec.org) to access the digital copies of their certificates. The Digital Certificates will be released forty-eight hours (48hrs) from today Friday, March 21, 2025. Candidates will be required to apply for the printing of the hard copies of their certificates online, through the WAEC Certificate Request Portal (e-Certman). The portal address is https://certrequest.waec.ng/. All candidates who sat the examination diet are hereby advised to check their results carefully and take necessary actions as required”, the WAEC boss said.
