"Awesome. My son passed their entrance exam but I don't want him to attend same sex school or even go as far as Abia State. I want him to attend their mixed school in Nteje " Marist comprehensive" but with these awesome results now, I don't even know what to do."
@iread_bayode said:
"This is a fantastic result. I congratulate those boys. Their hardwork paid off. However, if my son was in this school, he would have been second on the list for scoring 351. But guess what's, he's not in top 15 in his school, The Ambassadors College, Ota. And the best on your list here perhaps will make top 10. Over 120 out of 169 scored above 300 and the least was 255."
