calculate the BECE Aggregate Score for 2021
One of the most frequently asked topics on our social media platforms is how to compute the BECE Aggregate Score for 2021. We've produced this lengthy essay to help answer the query and provide more information to our valued readers.l
When determining a student's BECE Aggregate Score, it's important to remember that courses or disciplines are separated into core and non-core categories (Elective courses).
The marks a student obtains in the core subjects will all be taken into account when calculating his or her overall grade.
The major subjects are English Language, Mathematics, Integrated Science, and Social Studies, with electives including Basic Design and Technology, Ghanaian Language, ICT, French, and Religious Studies.
The grades a student receives in the core disciplines will all be factored towards the ultimate aggregate he or she receives.
English Language, Mathematics, Integrated Science, and Social Studies are the core courses, while elective topics [Basic Design and Technology, Ghanaian Language, ICT, French, and Religious and Moral Education] are the elective subjects.
Now to calculate the aggregate, add the grades you obtained from the core subjects.
For instance, a student named Samuel Kuma score the following in the 2021 BECE core subjects.
English Language – 2
Mathematics -3
Integrated Science – 2
Social Studies – 4
The total grade from ONLY the core subjects is = 2+3+2+4 = [11]
The next thing to do to calculate the 2021 BECE Aggregate Score is to pick the best scores from the remaining elective courses.
Now our student obtained the following grades.
Basic Design and Technology – 2
Ghanaian Language – 1
ICT – 2
French – 2
Religious and Moral Education – 3
From this, the two best results are 1+2 = [3]
Now Samuel Kum’s final BECE 2021 aggregate from the calculations is [11] + [3] = Aggregate 14
How does the BECE grade affect the school choice you are placed in?
The better your BECE grade, the greater your chances of getting placed into your school of choice.
The GES uses the Computerized School Selection and Placement System (CSSPS) to place students into schools across the country.
Note that WAEC scores students at the BECE from 9 -1 with 1 being the best grade and 8 & 9 representing failure.
