The subjects consisted randomly drawn from urban and rural geographical locations. Three instruments were developed and used to gather data. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and qualitative analysis. The results suggest that most WAEC supervisors have acceptable degree of supervision experience . WAEC makes adequate arrangement for the conduct of its examinations. Question papers were not always adequate and there were cases of examination malpractices in the course of WACE examinations. The study recommends the compilation of candidates' list to guide the production of examination papers and the provision of other facilities including tested security personnel and innovation in seating arrangement. | ||
