Rules You Must Follow
Hard truth, WAEC is strict. Break a rule, you might lose one paper, or the whole lot. Why risk it.
- Bringing notes, phones or cheat sheets into the hall? Say goodbye to that subject.
- Copying or getting help? Whole result gone.
- Tearing your paper or making noise? Cancelled.
- Helping others cheat? One-year ban.
- Whispering or passing notes? You and your partner both lose the paper.
- Paying someone to write for you? Police fit show face.
- Posting live questions or answers online? Result gone.
- Registering at two centres? Everything gone.
- Fighting or threatening staff? Arrest straight.
- Using pencil when pen’s needed? Paper cancelled.
- Hiding cheating evidence? Result withheld.
Play fair, stay calm, and follow the rules.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 WAEC GCE isn’t as hard as people make it sound. What catches most candidates is carelessness — missing dates, wrong info, or ignoring instructions. Take your time, stay smart, and avoid the usual traps.
One more thing, breathe. Exams aren’t monsters. You’ve got this, if you plan it right.
