This is what you should do after seeing your waec result:
If you have the required grade for admission, congratulations! Now is the time to prepare for JAMB. Your grade is just one of the three requirements that will help secure your admission to university. You will also need to take the JAMB and Post-UTME exams. A good grade significantly improves your chances for admission, as it accounts for 20% of the total assessment: JAMB makes up 50%, and Post-UTME accounts for 30%.
If you do not have the required grade for admission, don’t be discouraged. Most universities accept two sitting results for admission, so you can retake the exam and use both results. Additionally, you should still write the UTME exam, as you can register using an awaiting result. Fortunately, the WAEC results will be released before the UTME exam, so just ensure you update your JAMB portal accordingly.
