The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has launched a new initiative allowing students to resit their failed West African Senior Secondary Examinations (WASSCE) papers as early as January and February 2025.
This significant shift from the previous system, where candidates had to wait for the next private exam cycle, aims to help candidates quickly improve their grades and qualify for the next admissions cycle.
Students who access their results and realize they need to resit one or two papers have until January 8 to register online through WAEC’s website or at WAEC-accredited internet cafés.
The exams will take place from January 24 to February 15, 2025.
WAEC plans to expedite the release of chief examiners’ reports to assist candidates in their preparation, providing detailed feedback on common areas of difficulty and tips to improve study and exam techniques. Students whose results were canceled due to irregularities may retake the WASSCE PC1 exams, unless they are banned for malpractice.
This initiative is expected to prevent a year-long delay in students’ academic progress and offer a timely opportunity to enhance their results.
