B. MOOD, CONSOLING, COUNSELING.

As we earlier said above, waiting for a big event like the GCE results is something which really affects the mood and can keep your mind blowing up with thoughts.
At this time you should be anxious, waiting for your result with confidence that you will pass. The fact that you are waiting with confidence does not mean you should walk around and boost every where. I will give reasons below when we will be talking about experiences.

What if I feel like I am going to fail?.

Many GCE candidates waiting for their results always ask this question. The answer is simple.
Your thoughts are just ideas running through your head. They don not determine you failing or passing the GCE. Passing or failing the GCE depends on how you wrote, which you should be proud of. After all you having to remember:
 FAILING IS NOT A CRIME. IS IT?
 FAILING IS JUST A SIGN THE YOU ARE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BUT YOU HAVEN'T ARRIVED YET.
 One of the greatest mistakes that people make is looking at others life. The fact that your friend passes is not a guarantee that you must pass. Also, the fact that you pass is not a guarantee that your friend must pass. After all God has his clock for every one and every thing. However, this does not mean that you should not work. Put all the efforts and leave the rest to God.
Well we already wrote so  this is the time of hopes and trust. The time of effort is gone. Now the question in every candidates mind should be: will I pass? Will I fail? And the answer should be certain. I will pass.
Now we will move on to the next part which is talking about experiences, and we will also see some reasons why you should not hope out loud.

C. Past GCE experiences.

As we all know the GCE is not any exams that started today or yesterday. Therefore there is need for us to look at some pass experiences.
Don’t think that the GCE is impossible. I know of people who passed all their subjects in A grades. I myself I was proud to pass in 9 A grades at the ordinary level (its not like am trying to boost) its just to give you some hope that you can do it if others can. Even if its not this year, then its another year. After all there is a popular saying “ what can can can, can can also can.” Looking for your gce results?  Click here and see your gce results for 2019

Why should I not hope out loud?

Many candidates feel like it is correct to hope out loud. Well I will not say you should not hope out loud. If you know you are 100% sure that you must pass , then you can hope out loud. But if your mind is like every other candidates, then you should hope within you.

Let me share little experience with you.

At the time when I wrote the GCE ordinary level, we had students that usually take the first in class. We had average students, and we had below average students. Well as people usually say, “na GCE go judge we”. I didn’t believe this very much until after we wrote the GCE exams. We all waited anxiously for the results. To my greatest surprise, some students who usually boost out loud failed. Most of the students who usually have below average passed. Interesting right?. As the student who usually hope out loud, where do you start?. It will feel like the world has fallen on you and you will have no where to hide because you will be full of shame. It is a very horrific feeling. It is much better not to boost out loud and you don’t succeed than to boost out loud and you don’t succeed. This is therefore the reason why I advice you not to boost out loud now. Till you have received your results first and you are very sure about it.
We will now look at the next step. Which is writing time.

D. Writing time

This is basically how you wrote the GCE. Was it bad, was it good, was it average, was it normal. Comment how you wrote the GCE.   With this, you should be able to determine your mood now. Don’t be sad because others are sad as well as don’t be happy because others are happy. Every body wrote differently so how you wrote should be able to tell your mood now.
We now move on to the next which is release date

E. Release date of the Cameroon GCE 2019.

The GCE results can be released between the 20th of July and early August. However, it can be released earlier.  Last year 2018, the GCE results were released on the 23rd of July. So generally, the release date of the GCE results is 22nd July and early August

This this the most restless  time. You need to take courage before looking for your GCE results. There are several ways which you can see your GCE results.
You can see your GCE result from your school.
You can see your GCE results from newspapers and can get it from radio(this usually calls only the candidates who passed.)
You can get your GCE results from MTN Cameroon. ( when the time comes, they will send you a USSD code which you can use to check your results.)
Or you can get your results online. you can check your results here 
and you can also check through other websites.

G. What to do after you see your results.

This is the main time now. What you have been waiting for for a time which feels like more than 20 years. If you don’t succeed in the GCE, no need to worry. As I said failing is a sign that you are on the right part. You just need to reapply for the next year and double or triple your efforts. You will need to contain the shame and over come it instead of letting it break you down.
However, if you discover that you have passed, ohh! What a glorious moment. You can now celebrate out loud and do all the crazy things you have been waiting to do after the results.
 Comment below some of the things you will do. Or some of the things you were promised.
Congratulations you are officially in lower sixth or in the university.

Conclusion.

I took time off to write this article to help candidates who wrote the GCE 2019 to prepare them for their results. Please do tell us what you think and if you thin this article is worth, invite your friends to join you and read this article also. It will be of great help to them.
