Neco Releases Nov/Dec SSCE Examination Results - details

The National Examination Council (NECO) on
Tuesday made history by releasing the
results of the November/December Senior
School Certificate Examination it conducted
between November and December 2017 in a
record 38 days.

In the past, NECO had released the results 80
days after the conduct of the last paper, a
situation that had hampered admission into
tertiary institutions by successful candidates.

NECO Registrar, Prof. Charles Uwakwe, who
announced the results in Minna, Niger State,
said of the 42,429 candidates that sat for the
examination, 24,098 representing 56.79 per
cent passed with five credits and above
including English and Mathematics.

Prof. Uwakwe also said 32,917 candidates
passed with five credits and above
irrespective of English Language and
Mathematics, adding that 32,701 candidates
passed at credit level and above in
Mathematics and 29,258 scored credit and
above in English Language.

The Registrar said the examination body
recorded a marginal decrease in the number
of malpractices with 4,425 cases
representing 5.9 per cent.
