The West African Examinations Council (WAEC), Nigeria, yesterday said it is set to conduct the novel Computer-Based West African Senior School Certificate Examination (CB- WASSCE) for Private Candidates, 2024, from Friday, October 25 to Friday, December 20, 2024.
The council, in a statement by the acting Head of the Public Affairs Department, Adesina Moyosola Fadekemi, said the computer-based examination would adopt the hybrid mode of delivering the examination, implying that the objective or multiple-choice questions would be rendered on-screen and candidates would be required to give their responses on the screen.
She added that the essay and practical questions would be rendered on-screen, but candidates must respond using the answer booklets provided.
The statement concludes in part: “The examination diet has provided an option for candidates who may wish to use Paper and Pen mode for the whole examination papers.
“The Council wishes to inform all intending candidates that the registration period has been extended to Tuesday, October 29, 2024. Similarly, the “Walk-in-Candidate” opportunity (for candidates who register 24 hours before the particular paper of their choice is due to be taken) will be open at the end of the registration.
“Final timetable for the examination is available for download on the WAEC Nigeria website (https://www.waecnigeria.org) .’’
The council urged intending and registered candidates to take advantage of the numerous learning resources provided by the commission.
