In an interview with Sikaofficial on X, students gave different accounts of how they handled what many consider the most feared subject in the curriculum.
One male student did not hide his struggle with the questions, admitting that he only attempted the portions he understood.
Regarding the questions he could not solve, the candidate said:
"I left the rest for WAEC to answer themselves."
However, another candidate described the paper as "extremely good," though he noted that he skipped question number six because it was difficult and chose number five instead.
