- At the bottom, you will see “Any alteration, erasure or absence of photograph renders this certificate invalid
- If you turn to the back, you will see grades and interpretation. And it is clearly stated that only grades A1 – E8 is shown on this certificate.
Furthermore, at the back you will see a statement towards the bottom that reads:
The certificate issued is and remains the property of the West African Examination Council at all times and it is issued on the following conditions:
- The certificate must be surrendered to The West African Examination Council on Request
- The certificate should be kept in a safe place
- The West African Examinations Council will not issue any copies of the original certificate.
On the other hand, the WAEC statement of results doesn’t contain all the above features. You will only see your name, your examination number, your subjects, and your grade. In most cases, original WAEC results are more acceptable than the printout and statement of result issued by your secondary schools.
In conclusion, I hope I have been able to give you an Original WAEC result sample. This will help you to know what yours will look like.
