The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has announced that it will be conducting a free mock examination for all candidates participating in the upcoming first series of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) for private candidates.

The mock examination will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, January 23rd and 24th, and will be conducted digitally to better prepare candidates for the actual computer-based exam, which is set to begin nationwide on Wednesday, January 31st.

The Head of National Office of WAEC Nigeria, Dr. Amos Dangut, made this announcement in a statement released on Monday, as relayed by the council’s spokesperson, Mrs. Moyosola Adesina..

According to Dangut, candidates are expected to log on to the mockcbt.waec.org.ng portal using their mobile phones or personal computers to take the exam.

The portal for the mock examination will be accessible throughout the two days, and candidates will be allowed to access the examination page a second time if the first attempt fails.

He further mentioned that additional information, including login details, would be sent to all registered candidates via their email addresses and phone numbers once the registration is closed.

Dangut also added that the council would provide a link to the tutorial video on how to use the exam portal across all its social media handles, while extending best wishes to all the candidates for the upcoming exam.
