If you are a private SEC candidate, check which sign-in method your results notice specifies before release day. If it directs you to use Singpass, confirm you can sign in and complete two-factor authentication (2FA) on your own device.
For GCE results, SEAB published two routes. Candidates eligible for Singpass used Singpass credentials and 2FA. Those ineligible for Singpass used the account created during examination registration. Follow the instructions issued for your Singapore-Cambridge Secondary Education Certificate (SEC) sitting.
- Check your registration route and the official results window.
- Test the applicable sign-in method before release day.
- Use official account recovery if your device or number has changed.
- Keep passwords and authentication codes private.
Check which account applies
A candidate who is eligible for Singpass but has not set it up should check the activation and recovery instructions. The earlier alternative route was described for candidates ineligible for Singpass. Being unable to sign in on the day does not establish eligibility for that route.
Check the candidate notice before using an old registration password. If you are unclear which account applies, ask SEAB through its official contact channel.
Prepare before travelling or changing phones
If you have switched devices, lost access to a number or expect to be overseas, check your account while you still have time to resolve the issue. Start from the official website. Avoid opening a sign-in link forwarded in a group chat.
If an account prompt fails, record which step was affected. A successful account login followed by a blank results screen is a different problem from a failed authentication step.
