WAEC Releases Revised 2025 WASSCE Results, Apologizes for Grading Error
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has officially released a revised version of the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) results following the discovery of grading errors in the initial release.
According to WAEC, the error was due to a technical glitch in the automated scoring system, which affected the grades of some candidates. The examination body stated that it has rectified the issue and ensured all results now reflect the accurate performance of candidates.
WAEC’s Official Apology
In a public statement, WAEC expressed regret over the incident, acknowledging the distress it caused to students, parents, and schools. They assured the public that internal processes have been strengthened to prevent such errors in the future.
What Students Should Do
- Log in to the WAEC result-checking portal with their examination details.
- Verify their updated grades.
- Contact WAEC support if any discrepancies remain.
WAEC has also extended the period for result-related queries and complaints to give candidates ample time to check their new results.
Implications for University Admission
For students applying to Nigerian universities, particularly those with upcoming post-UTME screenings, this correction could impact admission eligibility. Universities are being urged to consider the revised results in their selection processes.
