Facts & Lies (Myths) about 2021 BECE results pass aggregate and result checkers

There are students who believe that their results can be changed. Hold it there and keep reading.
Myth 1# The results can be changed:
This is very untrue, scammers and fraudsters promise candidates who do not do well that they can alter their results for a fee. Whatever result they give you cannot be found on the WAEC system or result portal. To this end, WAEC has cautioned all stakeholders to be wary of fraudsters who promise to upgrade results for a fee. Candidates are to note that WAEC results are secured and can be authenticated.
Myth 2# The results online will change in a few days into something better.
Some students believe that the results on their portal after they have checked will change. This belief is often held by those who are disappointed in their performance. No matter how many times you go back to the café to check the results, the value will be the same. Stop believing this lie. If any of your colleagues tell you his or her result has changed, it means the person is not been sincere and is hiding his or her real aggregate from you.
