Before I get started with the explanation, I want to use this medium to congratulate you for that bold step you took or are about to take in writing your examination.

What are A1, B2, B3, C4, C5, and C6  in WAEC/NECO results?

In WAEC and NECO  grading systems, A1 is used to represent an excellent grade. Its mark ranges from 75 to 100. B2 is used to represent Very Good which has marks from 70 to 74 and B3 is used to donate Good which has marks from 64 to 65. While C4, C5, and C6 are all used to represent credit on the candidate's result sheet and their marks are C4 60 to 64, C5 55 to 59, and C6 50 to 54 respectively. All these grades are all good grades and they can be used to gain admission to any university

What is D7 in WAEC/NECO results?

In WAEC or NECO examination, D7 is used to specify a weak performance on the candidate's result sheet. Meaning that the result owner did not perform well on that paper. Its marks are ranged from 49 to 45.



Is D7 a fail or a pass In WAEC/NECO?

D7 is partially grouped as a failure when calculating WAEC percentage. In the calculation results are rated from number eighth to 3rd percent (8% to 3%). So in this manner, D7 fell out of the range and automatically becomes zero(0). In case you want to know how WAEC grade results

Can someone gain admission with a D7 grade?

Yes. 

Hardly for you can to get admission into any competitive university in Nigeria with D7 in any of the relevant subjects that are required by the school. Although the mark is woeful, some schools still accept it. 

If you want to know about these universities, kindly drop a contact me or comment on the one you need and I will without fail reach out to you.


What are E8 and F9 in WAEC /NECO results?

E8 stands for poor while f9 stands for fail. The two grades are rated from 44 to 39 and 39 to 0 respectively. In the WAEC marking scheme, percentages are not given for these scores. 

Can you gain admission with E8 and F9?

The answer to this answer is the capital letter NO. You can not gain admission with it.  No school in federal or state has ever taken such into consideration except for some polytechnics and colleagues of education.

The best thing to do if you have D7 or E8

1. Change your course: if it is within your power to switch courses, just do it because even if you wait, admission will not still be available for you. In this case, you will need to change to an area that is not affected. For example, if you planned to study Electrical Engineering and your result is affected by physics, you can easily swap from it to a related science course, like medical science provided you have enrolled in the subject that is required in the field.

2. Re-enroll: some people may not want to change. If you are that type of person, the best thing for you to do is to wait for the following year to re-seat the missing one.

So far so good, this is where I will call it a day for this tutorial. If you have any questions, you are always free to ask.
