The GCE online registration process has made things less stressful for both agents of the GCE Registration centers and students. This new method of e-registrations has been highly applauded by both parents and students, given that, it eases the registration process and cuts off certain ghost costs usually inflated by “long throat” administrators in the registration centers.
It equally helps avoid loss of data and certain nuances since everything can be tracked through an online database globally.
The GCE examination is written at two levels (GCE Ordinary level written at form five and GCE Advanced Level written at Upper Sixth).
Also, the Cameroon GCE Board has both GCE Technical (for technical students) and GCE General (for general education).

About the Cameroon GCE Board
After the Cameroonisation of the London GCE in 1977, things went on smoothly until 1984. From 1984 onwards, the GCE began experiencing irregularities as some London officials began withdrawing. Beginning from 1990, when the University of London Examination and Assessment Council withdrew completely from the role it had played so far on the Cameroon GCE, the irregularities became even more alarming. Some of these irregularities included,
- The used of GCE questions reserved for future sessions for Entrance Examinations into ENS in 1990,
- Change of the format of the GCE question papers in 1991 without prior notice to candidates, poor printing,
- Wrong pagination,
- Wrong spellings,
- Shortage of question papers and materials,
- Late arrival of question papers and the postponement of some papers,
- Wrong instructions on question papers and examination leakages.
In response to this popular demand, the Prime Minister of the Republic signed an order (Nº: 194/CAB/PM of 11th September 1992) creating a Technical Committee to carry out studies and make recommendations on the organization and functioning of the GCE Examination Board.
