The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released provisional results for 41,767 candidates who sat the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for Private Candidates – Second Series, according to a statement on Thursday.
The statement, signed by Head of Public Affairs John Kapi, WAEC, highlighted candidate performance in the four core subjects.
In all, a total of 41, 767 candidates sat for the examination. Of the candidates, 20,036 were male and 24,501 female, including 16 visually impaired and seven hearing-impaired candidates. A total of 2,422 registered candidates were absent.
According to WAEC, 67.43% of candidates passed English Language (A1–C6), 49.84% passed Mathematics, 35% passed Integrated Science, and 81.21% passed Social Studies.
Meanwhile, 11.25% scored D7, 10.28% E8, and 11.04% F9 in English; 11.05% D7, 11.42% E8, and 27.69% F9 in Mathematics; 14.76% D7, 18.24% E8, and 32% F9 in Integrated Science; and 4.64% D7, 3.72% E8, and 10.42% F9 in Social Studies.
WAEC has withheld the entire results of 348 candidates and subject results of 469 others for alleged examination malpractice, including collusion, impersonation, bringing in unauthorized materials, and seeking external assistance. The results of these candidates will either be released or cancelled after investigations are concluded.
The Council also warned the public against scammers promising to upgrade results for a fee via mobile money.
“WAEC’s results database is well secured, and all results can be authenticated. Institutions and organisations are advised to verify results presented to them directly from WAEC or access the confirmation/verification service online at the WAEC website,” the statement said.
Candidates can access their provisional results online at www.waecgh.org. Those with withheld results are to visit https://irreg.waec.org to see reasons for withholding and instructions on next steps.
WAEC expressed appreciation to all stakeholders, including supervisors, invigilators, and examiners, for supporting the successful conduct of the examination and release of results. Enditem
