The WAEC results of Jisiechimike Chigor Chimdundu, son of a University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) professor, have gone viral online following his recent check of the 2024 West African Examinations Council (WAEC) results. Despite securing impressive grades, including distinctions in Biology and Chemistry and A1 grades in Further and General Mathematics, Jisiechimike was disheartened by his performance.
The 15-year-old, who previously won a N500,000 prize in an English language contest in July, had hoped for distinctions in all his subjects. His disappointment stemmed from receiving a B3 in Physics, which he felt fell short of his high expectations.
