Know The WAEC Exam Format
The first step to preparing for any examination is to know the format of the exam. It is necessary to know the exam format and the way to solve the problems.
Also, you need to know the number and subject combination for the exam. In WAEC, you must register for at least six subjects and at most nine subjects.
The English Language is compulsory for Science, Art and Commercial students.
Theory and multiple-choice questions are the nature of the WAEC exam. Science students write the practical exam in Physics, Chemistry and Biology for WASSCE.
I recommend that you follow the directives of your teachers in your secondary school. Ask questions about the WAEC exam format to get more clarification.
Study with The WAEC Syllabus
Studying the WAEC syllabus is the secret to passing the SSCE exam with an excellent grade. The West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) syllabus contains topics that you must study.
The syllabus serves as a guide for students to read topics they would encounter in the exam.
Studying outside the syllabus is the sure way to failure. You must read only the topics in the syllabus.
By default, every school uses the WAEC syllabus from SSS 1 to SSS3 learning. It is advisable to go through the syllabus not to omit any topic during your study.
The WAEC syllabus serves as a guide to how what you should study. For example, you will know which topic to read first before going on to the next.
Create A Study Timetable
Creating a perfect study timetable is necessary for you to perform well in your exam. You have to assign a different subject for each particular day. For example, you can decide to study Physics on Monday, Chemistry on Tuesday and so on.
Your daily study timetable must not comprise many topics that you cannot read.
Set your study schedule to something that you can achieve every day.
Read according to the pace that you understand. Because your friend reads five topics in a day should not intimidate you. Do not adopt such a style when you yet know your reading capacity.
There is no reward for the first person to finish the syllabus. Passing your exams in flying colours is the goal and nothing else.
Start your preparations early enough to cover the syllabus no matter what your reading pace could be.
Creating a perfect study timetable is not enough. Stick to it every day. I know that studying for an exam is not an easy task, but you must persevere to burn the midnight candle.
Do not give up or try to encourage your laziness. It is far more fulfilling to pass your WAEC once and for all in one sitting than to rewrite the exam next year.
The time to pay the price for an excellent result is now. Make sure that you stick with your study timetable.

Read Your SSCE Notes
Reading your SSCE note is also a vital key to passing your WAEC exam. You must know everything that you have done since your SSS 1 class till now.
Your notes will make you study well as they will help enhance your understanding as you read your textbooks.
When you are having difficulties understanding a topic, consult your old notebooks. It will help to make things easy for you.
Get your old notes to study the topics in the WAEC syllabus.
Study your notes with the recommended textbooks for WAEC that is at the end of this post.
Read and Study
Reading and studying is the only way to pass your examination with flying colours. There are no two ways about it. It is the only secret to how you can make A’s in WAEC.
Reading your notes and textbooks is not enough. You must study between the lines to understand the topics in the syllabus.
The spirit of laziness makes you want to skip difficult topics. Do not try it or else you will encounter problems on the day of your exam.
Tell me topics that you have difficulties understanding in the comment section. I will give you the guidelines on how you can tackle the problem.
Also, for difficult topics, watch tutorials on YouTube and search for an explanation on Google. Besides, meet your secondary school teachers to solve your problems.
Some subjects like Mathematics and Physics may need constant practice with problems.
How to Read and Understand
- Read at a specific time every day.
- Attempt to solve the calculation questions in your textbooks and examples in class.
- Do not cram the calculations in your note or textbooks.
- Study your note and textbooks between the lines.
- Understand the concepts on a page before moving to the next.
- Do not check your WhatsApp and Facebook during study hours.
- Learn and understand the steps for calculations.
- Do not lie down when you are reading.
- Study in a serene environment with no form of distractions.
- Plan your study ahead of time.
- Use mnemonics to study that helps you to recall what you read.
- Create a perfect study environment.
- Do not read text aloud when you study.
- Suppress every feeling of laziness.
The truth of the matter is that WAEC Physics and Mathematics calculations are not hard. You need to understand the basic principle of how to solve the problems.
After you know the laws of the calculations, you can then begin to solve questions.
Practice WAEC Past Questions
Practising WAEC past questions and answers is the way to pass your examinations. Buy a past questions booklet with correct answers.
As you practice these questions, you get familiar with how WAEC set their exam. The theory section of the past questions will help you to know how to answer essay questions.
Do not make the common mistake of cramming the answers in the past question booklet. You need to practice how to solve problems. The purpose of the past questions is for you to learn how to tackle the questions yourself.
It is necessary to get past questions and answer booklet that has an explanation for the answers.
Join A Group Study
Joining a group study would help to make you better prepared for the exam.
WAEC group study is when a few students about four persons come together to study. The group study is based on reading the syllabus and practising past questions.
A group study will help you not relent on your exam preparations. Even when you feel like being lazy, other members will serve as motivation for you to study.
The common problem with group study is that one or two members of the group may be unserious.
It will go to affect the efficiency of the group tutorials negatively. Whenever you find yourself in such a situation, withdraw from the group.
Look for serious-minded students who want to pass the WAEC exam with distinctions once and for all. Do not get yourself into the wrong group that would distract you from your studies.
Note that a group study is not a substitute for your private reading. The group reading should comprise about ten per cent of your preparations.
Your private reading takes the bulk for you to excel in your examination.
You and your group members should draft a timetable and decide the day of the week to meet together. For example, you all may choose to meet every Saturday at 2 pm.
Practice WAEC Questions Online
Practising WAEC questions online is necessary to make A’s in the examination.
Practice WAEC questions online on platforms like Myschool. You can also download WAEC android apps on Google Playstore. Also, if you have a laptop, you can download the Myschool WAEC Past Questions Software.
These platforms would help you to answer multiple-choice and theory WAEC questions. It will also help you to answer questions within a time frame.
You should know that the WAEC exam is a timed exam. That is, you answer all questions within a time frame. Thus, it is necessary to work with the clock as you practice questions.
In the exam, the key to answering multiple-choice exams is to skip difficult questions. Do not waste time on a question that you do not understand.
In these online platforms, you would interact with other students also preparing for WAEC. These connections assist in your preparations and boost your confidence during the exam.
Attend WAEC Tutorials
Attending WAEC tutorials would help you to understand difficult topics. In the tutorial centres, you get simple explanations of topics.
You may find it difficult to ask questions in your convention classroom during the school period. But during tutorials, you have the opportunity to request more explanations.
Ensure that the tutorial you attend is exam-focused. Do not go to lesson centres where students go to show off the latest fashion and mobile devices. They are distractions to your exam success.
Most secondary schools organize WAEC lessons for their students. You would be better off attending the tutorial organized by your school.
Write WAEC Mock Exam
The WAEC mock exam is a preliminary exam organized by schools to test students for the SSCE exams.
Mock exams have the standard of the main SSCE exam. The nature of the mock exam is the same format as the WAEC exam.
WAEC mock exam allows you to determine your level of preparedness.
After the test, you would know your chances of passing the WAEC exam as you know your performance.
Do not make the common mistake of not taking the mock exam seriously. Prepare and write the exam as if it were the main examination.
If you do well in your mock exam, the chances are that you will pass your WAEC in flying colours.
Eat and Exercise
Eating healthy foods and exercising will help your brain to keep all that you read. As you prepare for your examination, only eat healthy foods rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, etc.
Do not eat junk foods as they do not have any nutritional benefits to assist with your exam preparations.
Also, as you read, make sure that you drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated.
Exercising for about 30 minutes or more every day will help to optimize your brain. The body loves when you engage in physical activities like exercise.
I recommend that you create a workout routine when you can engage in exercise.
It is best to exercise in the evenings than in the morning for students.
- Eat fruits and plenty of vegetables.
- Drink plenty of water to stay dehydrated
- Eat food rich in protein like beans, eggs, fish, milk, etc.
- Avoid junk foods.
- Never study on an empty stomach.
Avoid Social Media Distractions
Staying away from Facebook and WhatsApp will help to make you prepared and pass your exams.
These online platforms are a big distraction for many students.
They take away your study time. You must learn how to shut out these distractions as you prepare for the SSCE exams.
Here are tips on how to avoid social media distractions while studying;
- Do not check your mobile phones while studying.
- Turn off push notifications for Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp.
- During the period of your preparations and exam, stay away from social media networks.
- Do not pick up unimportant calls while you are studying.
- Discipline yourself not to check your Facebook and WhatsApp for a specified period like two days or one week.
- Switch off your phone while you are studying
- Get a torchlight phone to answer important calls.
Believe in Yourself
Believing in yourself that you can achieve success is the key to how to pass your WAEC examination.
Doubting your mental ability is a kind of mental preparation for failure.
Do not look down on yourself that you cannot make it to the exam. It does not matter if you are not attending the best secondary school in your state.
There is never an excuse for failure. Envision success with the little privilege that you have right now.
Develop a positive mindset inside of you that you will make distinctions in the exam. This self-motivation propels you to study harder for your exams.
You are not a failure but a victor. Do not give up on your dreams of passing your SSCE exam.
Are you scared that you will fail a particular subject in your WAEC exam?
Let me know in the comment section so I can give you strategies to study and get success.
WAEC Syllabus
The WAEC syllabus is a subject outline for each topic you need to study for the WASSCE examination. WAEC syllabus serves as a guide for students to know what to read and understand for the exam.
Every student must prepare for their examinations using the WAEC syllabus. It is the only way to prepare for the exam.
Here is the WAEC syllabus for all the subjects you will write in your forthcoming exams. Both the WAEC and JAMB syllabus is the same.
How to Answer WASSCE Questions
The best way to answer WASSCE questions is to prepare for the exam and be confident with your answers. Learn how to answer multiple-choice and essay questions.
Do not allow yourself to get overwhelmed with anxiety. Fear prevents you from utilizing your full potential. It will make you choose the wrong options and not perform well in your exam.
Sometimes, anxiety can make your head go blank in the exam hall. That will not be your portion during your exam. Turn your fear into motivation to prepare for your exam.
I recommend that you do not waste time with unfamiliar questions. Attempt the questions that you know before tackling other problems.
Also, learn to work on your own inside the exam hall. Do not make the mistake of trying to collaborate with other classmates inside the exam hall.
Collaborating with other students inside the exam hall will affect your performance. As you are preparing, make the decision that you want to be independent during the exam.
When you decide to work alone, your brain will make you study harder for your exams. This inner push is because you know there is no other way to pass your exams.
It is necessary to obey the instructions of the WAEC officials in your exam centre. Violating any of the rules may lead you to failure.
Never be in a rush to answer questions in the exam.
Read the instructions in the question paper before you begin the test. For example, you have to answer four questions out of six questions in the question booklet.
Online Quiz for SSCE Students
Online quiz for SSCE students is a platform like Myschool Classroom students practice WAEC multiple-choice and theory questions. Other online quizzes for SSCE are available as WAEC mobile apps on Playstore. Also, you can use CBT software to practice SSCE questions if you have a laptop.
How to Pass WAEC Without Stress
You cannot pass WAEC without stress if you do not intend to cheat during the examination.
Be aware that exam malpractice is against the policy of the West Africa Examination Council. You will not get your result if you violate the rules of the examination body.
Prepare for your exam by going through the necessary stress.
WAEC Exam Secret
The secret to passing WAEC is to study for the exam using the WASSCE syllabus. Persistency in studying is the key to excellence. Attend tutorials
- Read your books every day
- Practice past questions
- Be confident in yourself
- Seek help to understand difficult topics
- Avoid social media distraction
Recommended Textbooks for WAEC
The recommended textbooks for WAEC are materials that help you to understand the subject matter in the syllabus. Get these textbooks from bookshops around you.
You can check the different recommended textbooks on the JAMB Integrated Brochure and Syllabus Syllabus System (IBASS).
You do not need to get all the recommended textbooks for your studies. Of course, there is no way that you can read all of them before your examination.
Get at least one of the recommended texts for each subject. The textbooks follow the WAEC syllabus.

Mam can U Help Me I Do Not Understand Maths But when An Being Taught I Understand Very Fast And Again when I Study It Seems To Me As If I don’t understand But When Am About To Write I Will Remember everything Pls Mam am Sacred
Hello Avantika,
I understand that you feel scared and confused when it comes to studying math. It’s not uncommon to experience this kind of anxiety or uncertainty with certain subjects. Here are a few suggestions to help you overcome your fear and improve your understanding of math:
1. Seek Clarification: If there are specific concepts or topics in math that you struggle to understand, don’t hesitate to ask for help. Reach out to your teacher, classmates, or even online resources to clarify any doubts you may have. Understanding the foundational principles can make a big difference in comprehending more complex math problems.
2. Active Learning: Instead of just passively reading or studying math, engage in active learning techniques. This can include practicing problems, solving equations, and explaining concepts in your own words. By actively participating in the learning process, you can reinforce your understanding and memory retention.
3. Break it Down: Math can often be complex and overwhelming. Break down difficult problems into smaller, manageable steps. Start with the basics and gradually build your knowledge and skills. Take it one concept at a time, and once you grasp each one, move on to more challenging topics.
4. Practice Regularly: Consistent practice is key to improving your math skills. Dedicate regular study sessions to math, and solve a variety of problems to build your confidence and understanding. As you practice more, you’ll become more familiar with different types of questions and develop problem-solving strategies.
5. Find a Study Group or Tutor: Consider studying math with classmates or finding a tutor who can guide you through challenging topics. Working in a group or with a tutor can provide additional support, explanations, and different perspectives that may help you grasp difficult concepts more easily.
6. Stay Positive and Persistent: Don’t let fear or self-doubt hold you back. Believe in your ability to learn and understand math. Stay positive, be patient with yourself, and persistently work towards improving your skills. Remember that everyone learns at their own pace, and with dedication and effort, you can overcome your fears and excel in math.
Lastly, remember that it’s natural to feel nervous before exams or assessments. The fact that you can remember everything when you’re about to write shows that you do have an understanding of the material. Trust in your abilities and focus on applying what you’ve learned during those moments.

Yea, go through this post to see them.
Hi sir please am not good in mathematics and I don’t really have that zeal for reading. And would be writing waec soon pls how do I Cath up?
Hello Emmanuel,
What challenges do you experience when you try to read?
Ma’am, how do I get prepared enough for physics, chemistry, geography and English within three months before waec because I was not groomed properly at the beginning? I need your help ma
I understand your concern about catching up for WAEC in physics, chemistry, geography, and English within three months. It’s definitely a challenge, but with the right approach and dedication, it’s achievable. Here are some tips to help you get prepared:
General tips:
1. Create a study schedule: Divide your time equally between the four subjects, allocating more time for subjects you find more challenging. Stick to your schedule as much as possible and adjust it as needed.
2. Focus on understanding, not memorizing: Rote memorization won’t help you in the long run. Aim to understand the core concepts in each subject and how they connect. This will make it easier to apply your knowledge to different problems and questions.
3. Practice past WAEC questions: Familiarize yourself with the format and types of questions that usually appear in the WAEC exams. This will help you develop exam-taking strategies and boost your confidence. You can find past papers online or at your local library.
4. Join a study group: Studying with classmates or friends can be a great way to motivate each other, share resources, and clarify doubts.
5. Seek help from teachers or tutors: If you’re struggling with a particular concept, don’t hesitate to ask your teachers or tutors for help. They can provide additional explanations, recommend resources, and answer your questions.
Subject-specific tips:
1. Physics: Focus on mastering the foundational concepts like mechanics, electromagnetism, and waves. Practice solving numerical problems regularly. Resources like “New School Physics” by Ogbidi Anya could be helpful.
2. Chemistry: Pay attention to the periodic table and chemical reactions. Practice balancing equations and understanding chemical properties. “Comprehensive Chemistry” by Okoro might be a useful resource.
3. Geography: Focus on maps, physical features, and climatic patterns. Practice drawing and interpreting maps, and understand the link between human activities and the environment. “New Geography” by A.I. Obe might be helpful.
4. English: Read widely to improve your vocabulary and grammar. Practice writing essays and answering comprehension passages. Resources like “Essential English for Senior Secondary Schools” by Ike Amadi could be helpful.
Remember, consistency is key. Studying regularly for even short periods is more effective than cramming right before the exams. Take breaks to avoid burnout, stay positive, and believe in yourself. Good luck with your WAEC preparations!
Please let me know if you have any further questions or need help with specific topics within these subjects. I’m here to support you!

Hello Ateeqah,
Take a look at our recommendation for Mathematics. It will be very helpful.
Pls am currently in shs three but I’m finding it difficult to remember all what i learn and I’m finding it difficult to learn nowadays
Hello Benjamin,
It may be the result of how you study and how consistently you study.
Sometimes, for the things you learn to stick, you have to be consistent about it.
I’ll recommend you find out what works best for you. Some people remember pictures more than letters so they prefer to watch videos.
Try to find out what will work for you.

Goodmorning sir, sir i need help, you said that cramming is a mistake, you said that i should just study and understand the topic, the problem is that i will study when, i pinish studying a topic but still when i pick a past question pass paper still it will be difficult for me to answer that topic that i read in the past question please help me out
Cornelius,
You can cram your notes for your WAEC theory exams.
But you must understand what you are cramming.
Concerning your question on solving past questions. You need to study with understanding.
Try to develop an open mind when studying. No form of distraction at all.
If you cannot answer questions after studying, then read the topic again.
You will notice some improvements.
Watch YouTube tutorials for topics you do not understand.
I’m scared I am going to fail my Physics, mathematics, chemistry, English
Excellent, you do not have to be scared.
Follow the tips in this article.

Good evening sir
I am currently in SS3
And also a waec candidate but the issue i have is that i dont know any practical how will i cope during the waec practical
Also since i have not been able to read, and i have data processing on 19th how can i study
Hello Bethel,
Check out my post on how to prepare and pass WAEC practicals.
The tips in this post should help you to prepare for your exams.
You can check here for the WAEC syllabus for all subjects.
Sir i have not really been studying my past questions and I am in SS2 currently third term and I want you to help me organise a timetable for studying past questions in a way that won’t affect my daily reading and also help me get prepared. By the way I am a science student. Thank you sir.
Hello Cherish,
It is nice that you have begun preparations for your O’level exams.
Concerning your question, you should study your past questions after your personal study.
For example, let’s say you study Chemistry on Mondays for 4 hours.
You can study for three hours thirty minutes. The rest of the 30 minutes will be for studying past questions.
It is best to study past questions relating to what you have studied for the day.
Generally, you can assign a time on Saturday or Sunday to study past questions for all subjects.
I hope you understand?
Let me know if you have further questions. I will be glad to offer you the best assistance.
Sir pls I find it difficult when working plane Geometry and trigonometry hw can I make it easier
b.) Also I may plan to study for 4hrs every evening but after 2hrs I will be feeling lazy pls hw can I cope with this whilst I’m in my finals
Hello Abrafi,
Concerning not being able to study for 4 hours, here is what you should do.
Break your study time into different sessions.
Do not study for 4 hours on a stretch.
You can decide to study for 2 hours in the morning and another 2 hours in the evening.
That’s a total of 4 hours.
This method is more effective for your study.
Then on passing Mathematics,
The open secret of passing the Mathematics exam is to practise past questions.
Try to solve as many problems as possible.
Do not assume that you can do the calculations until you solve them in your book.
Studying Mathematics is not the same as other subjects.
The more problems you solve, the more understanding you get to pass your exams.
Sir pls, I find it difficult in working plane Geometry and trigonometry hw can it be easier for me
b) I may also plan to study for at least 4hrs but after 2hrs I will be feeling lazy pls hw can I cope with this whilst I’m in my finals
Please am having serious problem in mathematics so what can I do please help me.
Hello Jega,
The open secret of passing the Mathematics exam is to practice past questions.
Try to solve as many problems as possible.
Do not assume that you can do the calculations until you solve them in your book.
Studying Mathematics is not the same as other subjects.
The more problems you solve, the more understanding you get to pass your exams.

Good outline
i’m having trouble setting up personal time table and reading for long
Well, Bright,
The tips in this article should help you with the strategy of how to read for long hours.
Reading for long hours takes practice. You can read for 30 minutes today and 40 minutes tomorrow. That’s how it works.
Note that it is not advisable for just read for long hours. You need to take short breaks in between your study time.
Another good strategy is to study in a serene environment with no form of distraction.
List your subject let me help you draft a personal timetable.
I recommend buying this textbook: Hidden facts in mathematics ssce by M A Otumudia… You can know maths with this book even without a teacher.. it’s a a good book and it’s very big…

3. It is better to start the week with a difficult subject.
4. Discipline yourself to follow the timetable. For example, no checking of WhatsApp messages or status until you finish your target for the day.
For mathematics, well, you need to do more practice.
Do not study mathematics like Biology.
Make effort to know the principle of every mathematical problem.
Apply the principles by practising questions.

Good evening,please how can I be good in mathematics and literature
Yes, Eniola
You can be good at Mathematics and Literature.
Check the comment below where I explained how to be good in Mathematics.
For Literature, you need to study the recommended textbook.
If peradventure you notice that you do not understand basic concepts in Literature. Get started from the beginning.
Start to study the basics of Literature with understanding.
Dedicate time to study without any form of distraction.
The more you read the better you become.
pls what can I do,I try my every best to read always
.sometimes I will remember what I read and sometimes I might not remember anything
Forgetting what you read is normal.
It only a few people that can read a book once and recall what they have read.
You are not alone.
The way around this is to practice and practice. What I mean is to read over and over again.
Learn to test yourself with questions after reading. It is a form of active reading.
You can arrange with a friend to study together once or twice a week.
By the time you begin to explain a topic to your friend, you will remember everything.
It will make you have a sharp and retentive memory.
Develop confidence in yourself.
Read topics online and watch YouTube tutorials. You’d be amazed how far you will go.
Let me know if you need further clarification or assistance.
I appreciate sir but I still need more assistance.
Yes sir I need mor assistant
How can I help you?
Sir I’m not consistent in reading. I easily get distracted with phone although I’m a sound student. Please can you tell me why?
What exactly do you get distracted with on your phone?
I need a study partner. Science student precisely
How can I become good at Chemistry and Physics
Hello Jeffrey,
Chemistry
You can be good in Chemistry by reading your Secondary School textbook.
You will encounter some difficult concept as you study for your WAEC exam.
At this stage, you will have to make use of the internet. Check out any concept that you don’t understand on Google.
Better still, you can watch tutorials on YouTube. Trust me, you must get an understanding after seeing video tutorials.
I recommended you watch tutorials from Khan Academy and Organic Chemistry Tutor on YouTube.
Physics
Physics has theoretical and calculation part.
For the calculation aspect, you need to practice as many Physics questions as you can.
Your goal should not be to just look at calculations in your textbooks.
Learn the formulas and solve questions with your hands in a notebook.
The more you solve problems the better you will become in Physics.
You can also check out YouTube video for guidance.
For the theory aspect of Chemistry, study with the goal to get understanding.
Look for someone serious that is also taking the exam. You both can meet once a week to teach each other.
You cannot forget what you teach.
Let me know if you have any further question.
Thanks for this tips, but Chemistry and mathematics gives me a lot of headache
What textbooks are you using for Mathematics and Chemistry?
New school
Do you not understand the balancing techniques in the textbook?
Have you tried watching YouTube tutorials?
Am dullard in mathematics
The problem is that many of us did not get a good foundation in Mathematics.
Now, the solution to your challenge is to get the determination to know the subject.
Studying mathematics requires that you solve the problems yourself. You can not learn the subject by mere looking at your note or textbooks.
I will advise that you get a good mathematics textbook.
Attend tutorials or meet someone to teach you.
Start from the basics of mathematics.
Solve questions yourself.
All of these tips will help you to know the subject.
I will love to hear from you as you continue to make progress. You can make it.
No you are not
I am very panic about mathematics subject
You don’t have to panic.
Trust me, you can get better in Mathematics.
