The online West African Examination Council (WAEC) printout shows that Felicity is a science student, and she did well in civic education, scoring C5.

Felicity scored C6 in Economics and E8 in English, which is not so impressive. She recorded an F9 in chemistry, D7 in physics and C8 in animal husbandry.

She made B3 in computer studies but scored E8 in mathematics. People are saying the Facebook user should not have made the WAEC result public, and it is not the fault of the school but the candidate.
