How to check your BECE results online in Ghana

When BECE results drop, the portal gets busy and the rumours start flying. Here is exactly how to check yours the official way, and how to read what you see.

When do BECE results come out?

WAEC releases BECE results a few months after the exam. The 2025 provisional results, for example, were released on 23 August 2025. The 2026 exam was written in early May, so results are expected in the same late-August window — confirm the date on WAEC Ghana’s own channels before you go looking.

What you need before you start

• Your ten-digit BECE index number (on your registration slip).
• The year of the exam.
• A WAEC results-checker card or e-voucher — it carries a serial number and a PIN.

The steps

1. Go to the official eResults portal at eresults.waecgh.org.
2. Choose the exam type (BECE) and the year.
3. Enter your index number.
4. Enter the serial number and PIN from your card or e-voucher.
5. Submit, and your subject grades appear. Take a screenshot and note them down.

A scratch card normally allows a limited number of checks, so avoid logging in over and over. If the site is slow on results day, it is almost always traffic — wait and try again rather than paying for another card.

What your grades mean

BECE grades feed the Computerised School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) that places you into senior high school. Your aggregate is built from your best subjects, so strong grades in the core subjects — English, Mathematics, Integrated Science and Social Studies — carry real weight for the schools and programmes you can be placed into.

Practise the way you'll be tested. If you have a re-sit or you’re helping a younger sibling, StudyRevise’s BECE practice is mapped to the exact NaCCA topics and marked as you go. Pick your subjects on StudyRevise and start free — it works offline once a subject is downloaded.
