S-A-D! WAEC records mass failure: Over one million fail May/June 2012 WASSCE

The May/June 2012 West Africa Examination Council results recorded another mass failure, with only 38.81percent of the
candidates considered to have passed.
In a press briefing held in Lagos to announce the results on Friday, WAEC's Head of Nigeria National office, Iyi Uwadiae, said that 649,156 candidates representing 38.81percent obtained credits in five subjects and above, including in English Language and Mathematics.
He, however, noted that the results showed an eight percent improvement when compared to last year's May/June results, where 30.91percent of the candidates made the pass benchmark.

...Thumbs up to those that passed.
