The West African Examination Council (WAEC) normally conduct both school and private examination but at different times.  The school is usually done in May/June while the private candidates or GCE is been in Nov/Dec. The private examination is known as the GCE.

 

Just recently, WAEC made an announcement that GCE will now be done twice in a year. This means private candidates have a choice to make either to register for the first GCE or second. The first is expected to be coming up in January to February while the second is to come up in August to October. The choice is up to you. I believe this will give room for more people to do the examination and offer more options for candidates.
