Abuja — The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has postponed the full implementation of the computer-based test (CBT) format for the 2026 Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) until 2027, according to a statement released at the council’s 63rd annual meeting in Umuahia, Abia State. Hajia Binta Abdulkadir, Chairman of WAEC’s Nigeria National Committee, explained that the 2026 May/June edition will now serve as a pilot phase — allowing candidates to sit for either the traditional paper-and-pen test or the digital format. She emphasized that no student will be disadvantaged by the transition. The delay follows widespread concern over the readiness of many schools, particularly in rural areas, for full digital exams. Many institutions lack adequate computers, reliable electricity, internet connectivity, and trained personnel—factors WAEC and the Federal Ministry of Education say are essential for a successful rollout. To facilitate the switch, WAEC co...
Work ; This is the product of force and the displacement in the direction of the force. Work done = force x distance moved in the direction of force The unit of work done is Joule (J) How to Calculate Work Done Example Questions 1. If a car of mass 80kg moved a distance of 5m. calculate the work done by the car (g =10m/s 2 ) Solution Mass = 80kg Force = 80 x 10 = 800N Distance = 5m Work done = 800 x 5 = 4000J 2. A boy pulls a load of 300N to a distance of 6m. Calculate the work done Solution Force = 300N Distance = 6m Work done = 300 X 6 = 1800J Energy : This is the ability to do work. It is also measured in Joule (J). Energy has many forms which include: · Heat energy · Light energy · Chemical en...
