Are You Ready For Social Studies? Take a look at the 2025 BECE Final Projected Social Studies Areas Based on Education News Consult Mocks For All Students.
Ahead of the 2025 Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE), candidates are advised to review the following key areas in Social Studies. These topics are based on an analysis of the last four mock examinations administered by Education-News Consult.
Candidates should use this list as a revision guide while ensuring they also cover all other topics in the curriculum.
Important Disclaimer:
We wish to state clearly that these are not leaked questions from WAEC. They are projected topics that were used to assess candidates in the mock exams recently organised by Education-News Consult for students at home and in schools. No student should rely wholly on this list while neglecting the rest of the syllabus.
The Social Studies paper is scheduled to be the first paper written when the BECE commences on Wednesday, 11th June 2025.
Based on our analysis, we project that the Compulsory Question is most likely to be based on the “Our Environment” strand of the Basic 7-9 curriculum.
