The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released what its
official called ‘a discouraging’ result for the November/December 2013 West
African Senior School Certificate Examination.
The WAEC Head of the National Office, Mr Charles Eguridu said that
there was worrisome decline in candidates’ performance in the examination when
compared with students’ performance in 2011 and 2012.
“This year, 2013, we have a total of 86,612 candidates
representing 29.17 per cent obtaining credits in five subjects and above,
including English Language and Mathematics.
“In 2012, a total of 150,615 candidates representing 37.97 per
cent obtained credits in five subjects and above, including English Language
and Mathematics.
