“Due to numerous appeals from the public, the West African Examinations Council, in consultation with the Ministry of Education, has extended the deadline for registration for the 2018 exams." "The new deadline is now January 30, 2018,” WAEC said in a press statement. Out of the 220 12 graders at Patmelia Academy, Drapper said only 55 have registered for the tests. Unlike Patmalia Academy, the failure of parents to meet up with the registration fees, compelled his institution to handle the payment of their students. Student Fanga said his parents are yet to do his WASSCE registration because of hardship and financial constraints.
