The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has hinted to candidates about its plans to adopt a new model that allows for the effective conduct of the examination to meet global best practices. In a statement made available on Monday, the Council’s Head of Public Affairs, Moyosola F. Adesina, disclosed that the Council has concluded arrangements to begin using the Computer-Based Test (CBT) as its new examination model. The statement reads further:
“The innovation will commence with WASSCE for Private Candidates, 2024 – First Series, which is slated to hold in February 2024. While the Objective Tests will be fully Computer-Based, the Essay and Test of Practical papers will be hybrid, in which the examination questions will be delivered on the screen, and candidates will be required to write answers on the answer booklets given to them.
Furthermore, the examination will be conducted in urban centers/cities, and candidates with special needs have been factored into the plan. Registration for the examination will commence on Monday, December 18, 2023.”
Meanwhile, candidates are expected to sit for a Mock Examination to be conducted in February 2024 before the examination commences.”
