The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has launched new digital study portals designed to assist students preparing for the 2025 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
These resources are part of WAEC’s effort to ensure students have the right tools to succeed.
The announcement was made by Dr. Amos Dangut, Head of the Nigeria National Office of WAEC, during a news conference on Thursday.
Dr. Dangut revealed that WAEC has made critical resources available to candidates in the WASSCE Core Subjects, Arts Subjects, Science Subjects, and Commercial Subjects to help students prepare effectively for the upcoming exams.
“WAEC E-Study Portal is the approved exams preparatory platform, designed for candidates preparing to sit the WASSCE. This enables schools, teachers, and students to access past WASSCE questions (multiple-choice or theory-based), learning plans, marking schemes, and performance insights.”
