    lt appeared impossible to Roland because of nothing but ignorant.Ignorant because he is not aware that now WINNWSEC has CECILIA KWAKYE COFIE who is endowed to make the impossibility possible.
    Watch out for more come 2011.

    I can see you’re all work up by this list of what nots. Why don’t we come up with a list highlighting the destinations of our graduates and how long they waited to get a job after garduation?

  46. baldwin baddoo says

    i presonally think the whole thing is wrong because akwapeman secondary scool must even come before winneba secondary school,but all the same it is the academic perfomance that we are looking at not the scool.my advice to all my friends out there is that they should not thinkl of how high the school is but rather focus on their books.

  48. Sackey Emmanuel says

    The mighty baobab tree is still alive. the boys are still blazing . Presec is still the best among all other schools in Ghana. AYEKOOO TO ALL 2009 ODADEE. especially to Frank the best student of the 2009 WASCE. ayekoo PRESC
