The West African Examination Council, WAEC, is currently receiving backlash following the release of the May/June 2025 West African Senior Secondary Certificate Examination, WASSCE.
The results has sparked outrage nationwide among students, parents, educators, and policymakers following the reported poor performance of candidates.
WAEC indicated that only 38% of candidates obtained at least five credit passes in subjects including English Language and Mathematics – two core subjects required for admission into tertiary institutions.
Noted as a drop from last year’s pass rate of 72.12%, the development has raised concerns.
“Most of them can’t even type and short words have spoilt them. This is not about WAEC, I have them around. Empty Barrels.”
Many Nigerians have now rejected the report, insisting WAEC ahs a question to answer
I stand to reject this propaganda called 2025 Waec result
@TouchBigman said, ”We Nigerian youth can’t and will not accept this ill treatment by West African Examination Council. This is the time they show us every Evidence on paper and school. I call on every student, school, parent and Guardian.
@quwam001: Imagine having A1 in Physics, Chemistry, Civic, and Further Maths, then scoring D7, E8, or F9 in English.
Why? Leaked paper. Last-minute timetable change. Some wrote the exam at 11pm, drained and unprepared. Now WAEC brands them “failures”? These students deserve better.
