Students sitting for the National Examination Council (NECO) organized Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE) will be tested using the Computer-Based Test (CBT) system starting from 2016.
The Chairman of the NECO Governing Board, Dr Paddy Njoku, said this on Thursday during the board's monitoring visit to the Model Secondary School, Maitama, Abuja.
According to him the CBT will be introduced in the coming year.
"We will introduce CBT in papers that need computer in the next exams, but some other subjects are either practical or essay; so you cannot put everything under CBT," he said.
NECO Registrar, Prof. Abdulrashid Garba, also affirmed that the Council will use the CBTT system in 2016.
This is coming a week after the Head of National Office (HNO) of the West African Examinations Council (WAEC), Dr Charles Eguridu, said it will not be possible to fully adopt the CBT at the moment because of the variables involved.
