Just make sure you do your best to conform to it.
Tip:
While creating your timetable, make sure you give more time to you core subjects. Your core subjects are the five subject you are recommended to pass, before going into your filed of study. For instance, a student who wants to study law, must give more time to Mathematics, English, Literature, Government and CRS/IRS. This will help you pass effectively, at least in those subject.

There have been controversies as to when a WAEC candidate should start preparing for WAEC examination. While some writers will say 6 months, some will say 3 month and some say you are supposed to start preparing from the day-one of your secondary education. Well, I think they are all correct in their own sense. However, for me, you should start reading now. Perhaps, you are reading this article just few weeks to your examination, and of course you are scared you will not be able to cover up. Well, that shouldn't throw you off balance. You can still pass with good grades, if you invite God, and start reading relentless from now.

WAEC does not only test you on what you have upstairs, they also test your ability to follow simple instructions. Sometimes, it is not that you didn't write very well, it is just that the mistakes you made while answering your questions, have destroyed your supposed score. Below are some of the mistakes students make during WAEC examination:
- Failing to write their names in capital letters
- Wrong centre number
- Wrong seat number

The above are the most prominent mistakes candidates make during WAEC examination. There are other common mistakes candidates make, but if you can effectively sidestep the ones listed above, you have gone a long way to reduce your chance of making mistakes during WAEC examination.
To circumvent these mistakes during WAEC examination, you must learn to structure your answers before writing them down in your answer sheet.

Many WAEC candidate often see this as a waste of time, but the truth is that it actually works. It will prepare you for the real examination, and make it absolutely possible to pass WAEC examination in just on sitting.

At that juncture, i saw one of the reasons why many student fail WAEC examination.
