MEANING OF OUTSTANDING, HELD, WITHELD, RESULT NOT AVAILABLE, CANCELLED, INDEBTED IN EXAMINATION RESULTS

MEANING OF OUTSTANDING, HELD, WITHELD, RESULT NOT AVAILABLE, CANCELLED IN WAEC EXAMINATION RESULTS COMPILED BY EXPOTAB

1. Meaning of WAEC Result SHOWING OUTSTANDING/WITHHELD:
There is a very high chance that the result will be released.
Outstanding in some subject(s) mostly occurs when a student is recorded as present in exams, but the marks on the subject(s) are not concluded. It can also be caused by an extra answer sheet. i.e. when not properly attached or some other factors.


2. Meaning of WAEC Result showing WITHELD:
This occurs when almost all the candidates in a particular centre have the same grade. WAEC will further investigate the result. If truly the candidates engaged in any form of malpractice during the exam, such results would be seized and not released. But if reverse is the case, they would be released.
The chances of release here are slim.



3. Meaning of WAEC Result showing HELD:
This is almost the same thing with Witheld. Held results mostly occur when a written remark is made on a candidate’s answer booklet relating to malpractice and other examination offenses.

It can also occur when a particular school or exam center is indicted for malpractice.
After proper investigation and the school is vindicated, there is a possibility of WAEC releasing the results.
But once it starts showing CANCELLED, just forget it, the result is dead.

4. Meaning of WAEC Result showing RESULT NOT AVAILABLE FOR THIS CANDIDATE IN THE SPECIFIED YEAR AND EXAMS DIET:
These can occur when:
(i) Results are yet to be uploaded. (You can check back later or check back in a week or two weeks time)

(ii) You chose the wrong exam type or year while checking your result.

So, if you chose the right exam type and year, then don’t panic, your result will be uploaded later.

THE REASON WHY SOME SCHOOLS ARE YET TO BE UPLOADED IS THAT "MAYBE" THE SCHOOL DIDN’T UPLOAD THEIR CANDIDATES’ CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT!
SO, RELAX WHILE YOUR SCHOOL & WAEC SORT IT OUT!



5. Meaning of WAEC Result showing CANCELLED:
Just go and register for GCE or put your hope on NECO if u wrote the exam. There is no reversal in this type of result. Nothing will make them release it. I don’t know if you understand me well. Okay, JUST GO AND CRY! LOL



6. Meaning of WAEC result showing INDEBTED:
The INDEBTED you see on your portal means that your state government owes WAEC some money which is why the results haven’t been released.
So, if you recently checked your WAEC result and saw "INDEBTED" instead of your grades, don’t worry. It’s not your fault as your state government is working on making payments for the results to be released.

RESULT NOT AVAILABLE FOR THIS CANDIDATE IN THE SPECIFIED YEAR AND EXAMS DIET

The above statement means any of this:

1. Results yet to be uploaded (You can check back later or check back in a week or two weeks time)

2. You chose the wrong exam year

Be mindful of how you keep checking your result, you only have five usages, ie. You can use a WAEC scratch card pin only 5 times.
