Please keep in mind that the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) exam is not only administered in Nigeria but also in other countries in West Africa such as:

  • Nigeria
  • Ghana
  • Sierra Leone
  • Gambia, and
  • other West African countries.

However, there may be time differences. Because those in Ghana may begin a little earlier than those in Nigeria.
