How WAEC Questions Look Like
WAEC examination questions are typically divided into two parts. The theoretical and objective parts. Please read carefully as I explain the two sections below.
The theory section: You will be asked to answer questions without being given any options. In this section, you are expected to provide complete answers to the questions.
The objective section: Unlike the theory section, the objective section consists of questions with options for you to choose from (they are usually the first part of your question paper).
How to Pass WAEC: 2022/2023 WAEC Examination Preparation Guide
1. Be determined: There appears to be no success without determination. Psychologists have confirmed that the only thing that will help a student succeed in any examination is determination.
In contrast, you must first encourage and tell yourself that you must pass the WAEC examination in just one sitting. This will go a long way toward ensuring that you pass WAEC without fear.
For many students, passing in one sitting is extremely difficult, if not impossible, but this ideology is false. Everyone has a unique point of view on the world.
Through your hard work, you are the only one who can determine whether you will pass the WAEC examination in one sitting. Don’t let others discourage you.
Tell yourself that you can pass in one sitting, and it will be so. After all, people who have died are human beings like you and me. After that, try to remain steadfast, persevered, and be strong at the same time, because it will not be easy. You must prepare yourself for a lot of hard work.
2. Start preparing as early as possible
There have been disagreements about when WAEC candidates should begin preparing for the exam.
While some writers believe that 6 months before the exam is ideal, others believe that 3 months before the exam is preferable. Some even believe that candidates should begin preparing from the start of secondary school.
Well, I believe each of these writers is correct in their own way. However, I believe that the best time to begin studying for the WAEC exam is right now.
In contrast, if you are only reading this article a few weeks before your WAEC exam, you can still pass with flying colors if you begin reading now. There is no such thing as too late. Simply pick up your books and begin covering as many topics as you can right now.
Trust me, if you invite God and begin reading relentlessly today, you can still pass with good grades. There is no best time to begin preparing for the WAEC exam.
3. Do not allow people’s opinions to stop you from reading
One common issue with candidates attempting to pass the WAEC examination is allowing other people’s experiences and words to discourage them. It is worth noting that this is one of the causes of massive exam failures and malpractices during national examinations.
Yes, it will be difficult, but you must learn to channel your fear and discouragement into strength. Allow your fear to motivate you to work hard. Allow it to keep you focused on achieving your desired grades in the WAEC examination.
There appear to be no two ways to stop fear during the examination. The only way is to prepare thoroughly for the exam. This will boost your confidence and boost your chances of passing the exam.
4. Prepare a reading timetable and stick to it
Yes, the next step is to make a schedule. A timetable will help you cover everything you need to read before your exam. It will allow you to make the most of your time and properly prepare for the WAEC examination.
Most students fail to do this because they are unable to strictly adhere to their timetable. It is important to note, however, that you should not strictly adhere to it. Just make every effort to conform to it.
Make sure to give your core subjects more time when planning your schedule. Your core subjects are the five subjects that you are expected to pass before entering your field of study.
A student who wants to study law, for example, must devote more time to Mathematics, English, Literature, Government, and CRS/IRS. This will help you pass those subjects effectively.
I hope that with the stated tips you can be able to pass your upcoming WASSCE with ease and come out with flying colors as well.
We wish you all the best in your upcoming examination.
