Special Notes You’ll Actually Want to Read

Get Organised for WAEC GCE 2025

First things first, get organised. Download or print the full WAEC GCE 2025 timetable, highlight your exam dates, and stick it somewhere you’ll see it every day, maybe on your wall, study desk, or even your fridge.

In addition, make a separate note for project stuff and orals. Those don’t always show up with fixed times, so they’re easy to miss.

Don’t wait till the last minute. This is the right moment to adopt a structured study plan. Although the timetable may initially seem overwhelming, but it’s just a pile of subjects you’ll clear one by one. Think of it like a puzzle.

Start small. Keep steady. Stick to your plan. Take a breath now, because the real grind is coming soon.
