Ndubuisi Gift's 2026 WAEC result
A screenshot of her result, which accompanied the post, showed a mixed performance across her subjects.
She earned B2 in Civic Education, B3 in Marketing, B3 in Economics, B3 in Agriculture, B3 in Biology, and C4 in English Language. However, the scores that hurt the most were D7 in General Mathematics and D7 in Physics, the two subjects she described as her most important.
The result means she did not obtain the minimum credit passes typically required in Mathematics and English for university admission under JAMB and most Nigerian tertiary institution requirements, a blow familiar to thousands of candidates every year.
Rather than stay silent about the disappointment, Ndubuisi chose to be open about her situation and signalled that she intends to rewrite the examination in 2027.
Secondary school teacher comments on 2026 WAEC exams
Legit.ng asked Tosin Daramola, a Commerce and Financial Accounting teacher at FOBAS Kingdom Inspired Academy, Ogun State, about which subjects students performed well in, and which ones were challenging, and she responded:
"The generic subjects recorded high success while subjects peculiar to each department did not record much success. For instance, further mathematics for the science, financial accounting in commercial and literature in art."
