The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced the start of the Computer-Based West African Senior School Certificate Examination (CBWASSCE) for private candidates, commencing on Friday, October 25, 2024. This new examination format will run until December 20, 2024.
In a statement released on Tuesday by WAEC spokesperson Adesina Fadekemi, the council detailed that the examination will utilize a hybrid delivery method. “The objective or multiple-choice questions will be presented on-screen, while candidates will respond directly on the screen. Essay and practical questions will also be rendered onscreen, but responses must be written in the answer booklets provided,” Fadekemi explained.
