“I have engaged WAEC with regards to the releasing of the WASSCE and BECE Results, for WASSCE, I was told it will be released by the end of this week or to mid-next week. For the BECE result, we are anticipating it by the end of this month,” he said.

WASSCE is the final examination taken by secondary school students before admission to a tertiary institution.

Over the years, the number of passes has surged pressuring some tertiary institutions to offer entrance exams before admission.
