Announcing the result, Acting Registrar, Dr Nnasia Ndareke Asanga said the 44,000 who obtained five credits including Mathematics and English language represent 65.35 per cent of the total candidates for the examination.
He added that a total of 62.235 candidates representing 92.42 of the candidates who sat for the same examinations also obtained five credits and above with or without English Language and Mathematics.
Asanga noted that 67,751 candidates registered for the examination in 1,708 centres across the country.
