WASSCE 2022 was not an easy battle for WASSCE candidates. Most candidates did their best, but very few candidates are confident about passing. This article contains what 2022 WASSCE candidates should know as they await their results.
What 2022 WASSCE Candidates Should Know
1. When results will be released
Results are normally released 40 days after the last paper, but this is not certain since the number of candidates writing differ in each year. Due to this, the results are expected to be released from 29th November 2022 to 5th December 2022.
2. Papers that leaked too much are marked with strict rules
Since most papers leaked during the examination, WAEC decided to mark papers that leaked too much, like the Core Math and Integrated Science, with strict rules. This is because they assume most candidates had the questions and so must perform better.
