WAEC result of boy who wants to study medicine causes serious buzz online

Following the recent release of the 2024 WASSCE results, the WAEC result of a Nigerian boy who wanted to study medicine has sparked a wave of discussions online.

The boy, identified as Austin, who sat for his exams at DEPOWA Schools, took to Facebook after checking his results, which were officially released on August 12.

In the Facebook post, Austin revealed that he had taken nine subjects and aspired to study medicine at the university.

His results were a mix of impressive grades and one notable setback. Austin excelled in Civic Education, where he got an A1, and performed well in core subjects such as English Language and Mathematics, with B3 in both.However, his performance in Chemistry, a crucial subject for his desired field, fell short with an E8.

The student also scored C5 in Agricultural Science, C4 in Biology, C6 in both Physics and Computer Studies, and C5 in Catering Craft Practice.

“My WAEC result. Omo chemistry spoil show,” the boy lamented.

When asked about the course he wanted to study at the university, Austin said:

“Medicine.”
