Let me lend my voice to this topic.
It is an undenyable fact that most of our students today {even those in tertiary institutions} are generally unserious. They no longer see hard studies as a tool for success in examinations rather, they go for the "easy way."
however, in some cases, these educational cows in the sector contribute to the failure of some of these students.
Let's not forget that every student now wishes to go to the university, and in a situation where the government can not provide educational facilities that can absorb these students into the tertiary institution, what then do you expect- they will do all they could just to frustrate the dreams of these students via the O level result knowing too well that without a good O level result, they would give up on their tertiary dreams for that year and start thinking of how to re-sit.
I had this experience in my days. I don't mean to brag, but the truth is: during my primary and secondary school days, my position has never exceeded 1st, 2nd or 3rd. But when it was time for WAEC, I wrote my heart out but when the result came, all i could get was just 4 credits and without English. This completely frustrated my tertiary potentials for that year.
However, the next year, i came back and showed them the substance i was made of. I cleared everything, having my results nicely decorated with A{s} and B{s} and WAEC could'nt stop me this time.
Lots of my clever friends have also had this experience.
So let's not only blame the students but also the government who knows that if many students happen to pass, the number of students who will be seeking admission will increase beyond their capacity which means a shame to them.

how clever were your classmates?
