Registrar of the National Examinations Council (NECO), Prof Ibrahim Wushishi, has said the complexity of its examination may not allow for immediate migration from paper to Computer-based Test (CBT).

Wushishi, at an interactive session with newsmen in Abuja yesterday on key achievements of the council said by virtue of being the body conducting the largest numbers of examinations, migrating to CBT would take gradual steps.

“For the fact that NECO is the largest examination body by virtue of the number of its examinations we conduct, migrating to CBT is a critical issue.

“For JAMB, they are not examining candidates in so many subject areas so they find it very easy to embrace CBT in their examinations and do multiple choice in their exams.

“As far as NECO is concerned, if you look at the nature of our exams particularly in SSCE internal-for admissions into tertiary institutions, every year we examine students close to 1.5 million which is a large number.

“For these 1.5 million candidates, we examine these candidates in 76 different subjects and more than 150 different papers.

“So if we look at the complexity of this exams, particularly the essays where we have different papers, going CBT is something that experts need to sit and look at the nitty gritty of the exams,” he said.

He further said that this was to ensure that standards of its exams in the areas of acceptability, reliability and credibility are maintained.

He added that international universities such as Lead university, and Birmingham City University in the UK wrote the council to use its results to apply for those institutions.
