The Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE) is a major academic milestone for Ghanaian students, and a key step after the exam is checking your results. To do this, you need a BECE Results Checker, which is an electronic voucher containing a unique Serial Number and PIN. These credentials are what you’ll use to log in to the official WAEC results portal to view your grades.
This article explains how to purchase a BECE Results Checker using the USSD shortcode *899*550# and also provides information on other available shortcodes.
