...why won't they when Facebook, Bbm, Twitter, 2go and baba Ijebu will not allow them to read.
The same reasons there was mass failure at the law school...

Thanks to I pad, i-phone, Samsung galaxy etc. When students can no longer Use the tables effectively for reading rather they press tablets all thru like their lives depended on it. Small gurls of 14, already thinking of love and boyfriend etc this generation of students needs reorientation and value based teachingz

Just out of curiosity, why is it always " 70%" of the candidates who fail all the time? I reckon the statistics are wrong but if true, what a shame

this is the effect of the terrible enviroment we exist in, poverty,hardship, materialism is at the excesses, a 15year old girl has lost concentration in his studies, she has started dating, keeping boyfriends, engaging in sex, adult life is being practiced at not a supposed age, social networking is the work of the day, they engage in 2go,facebook,wats app,badoo looking for friends i dont know for what reason, when they should concentrate on their studies, so much unnessacary distraction, bad influence from what they see that go on around them,from their seniors derail this teens at an early age,they totally loose concentration..

Of the 246,853 candidates who sat for the November/December 2014 West African Senior School Certificate Examination, only 72,522 candidates, representing 29.37 per cent, obtained credits in five subjects, including Mathematics and English Language.

This puts the percentage of failed candidates at 70.63 per cent.

However, the Head of the Nigeria National Office, the West African Examinations Council, Mr. Charles Eguridu, said there was an improvement when compared with last year’s 26.97 per cent (amounting to 80,135 candidates) who obtained five credits in five subjects, including Mathematics and English Language.

Announcing the results in Lagos on Thursday, Eguridu said there was a marked reduction in examination malpractices.

He attributed this to recent measures, including the introduction of biometric registration and customised mathematical sets with inbuilt calculators, taken to curb the scourge.

Notwithstanding efforts made to curb examination frauds, Eguridu said WAEC withheld results of 28,817 candidates.

He said the results which represented 11.67 of the number of candidates who wrote the examination, were withheld for “various cases of malpractices.”

The cases, according to him, are being investigated with the reports of findings expected to be presented to the National Examination Committee for consideration.

The examination agency had withheld 38,260 results, equivalent of 12.88 per cent of the total number of candidates who sat for the examination in 2013 for similar reasons.

Short of the total figures are 5,691 candidates (about 2.3 per cent) whose results, Eguridu said, were still being processed for errors he blamed on the candidates and cyber café operators.

He said, “Of the total number of candidates that sat for the examination, 75,313 candidates (30.5 per cent) obtained credits and above in six subjects; 110,346 candidates (44. 7 per cent) obtained credits and above in five.

“In addition, 145,036 candidates, representing 58.75 per cent, obtained credits and above in four subjects while 177.177 candidates, representing 71.77 per cent, obtained credits and above in three subjects. A total of 205,090 candidates (83.08) obtained credits and above in two subjects,” he presented.

The total number of candidates that sat for the examination this year is 61,364 short of the 308,217 candidates that wrote it last year – a decline of about 20 per cent.

There was also a shortfall of “blind candidates” enrollment. The figure fell from 82 recorded the previous year to 48. And while 17 of the category of candidates obtained five credits in 2013, four achieved similar feat this year.

I believe sometimes the exams no de reflect the teachings in Nigeria.

Social media distractions is just enormous!!! Students are hooked to shortcuts which eventually cuts them short. The quality of teachers have dropped drastically, mushroom schools springing up rapidly. So Sad.

2014 Nov/dec waec gce is out and to my greatest surprise i failed mathematics, immediately i saw it i had to contact Mr Andrew in the waec office because already i have had so many people saying good things about him on waec sites that he can solve any waec problems.That same day i called him on..08152240666.. and he told me not to worry that every thing will be alright and just this next day he told me to check by 12 in the afternoon, i checked in the afternoon and it was shock to me to see my mathematics that was f9 now upgraded to C4, i am so happy i have seen a proof that waec upgrading is possible only with Mr Andrew's help and i don't know about others so if you are interested in upgrading yours too then you don't have to worry just call his number..08152240666
