The best graduating student of a secondary school has caused a significant stir on social media due to her unexpected performance in the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE). This revelation was shared by a Twitter user with the handle @dexterouz11, who posted a picture of the student's West African Examination Council (WAEC) results.
This student had been celebrated as the top graduate of her school, a prestigious title indeed. However, her WASSCE results have left many baffled and questioning the criteria for such an honor. Her report card displayed an astonishing four F9 grades out of the nine subjects she had taken.
Expressing shock and disbelief, @dexterouz11 raised concerns about how a student could be recognized as the best in her school while performing so poorly in a critical examination like the WASSCE. The user's post drew attention to the student's claim that there might have been an error in the results and her intention to retake the exams in an attempt to rectify the situation.
In a statement that captured the bewilderment of many, @dexterouz11 wrote, “How can you be the best graduating student in your school and get 4 F9s in WAEC out of 9 subjects...this one no match oooo. She’s saying there might be a mistake and she would like to resit the exams. How possible is that? Please explain this.”
