WASSCE And BECE Are Always Marked Out Of 70%; Here’s How To Get Your Remaining 30%

Did you know that WASSCE and BECE are always marked and rounded to 70%? What then happens to the 30% which seems to have been deducted from your marks?

Well, it’s quite simple. Over the years, WAEC always give credit to academic activities in our various senior and junior high schools. The exercises, homeworks, end of term exams and project works all form part of the final assessment.

If you get grade A1 in WASSCE or BECE, it doesn’t mean you had that grade solely in the WASSCE or BECE, but rather all class assessments such the homeworks and the exercises formed part of such grade.
The grading for the WASSCE (SC) and BECE (SC) is 70% external examination score and 30% continuous assessment score.

How Can Students Get The Remaining 30% Since WASSCE And BECE Are Marked Out Of 70%

Since WASSCE and BECE are marked out of 70%, then candidates should make sure they get the remaining 30% from the senior and junior high schools they attended. Paying attention in class and taking part in all class assignments will give you a perfect grade in the external exams.
One may perform poorly in the external examinations but if such student has a better grade in the school assessment, it will be very difficult for such student to fail in the exams.

The 2023 WASSCE and BECE is set to take place on July 31 and August 7 respectively. Registration portas for both examination are almost closed.

WAEC is likely to ask questions in the following areas or topics under each subjects for WASSCE candidates. Candidates should master these areas and learn other areas as well.
