The West African Examination Council (WAEC) says the adoption of computer based test is unnecessary.
According to Charles Eguridu, National Officer, the purpose of education is to prepare people for life, not to pass examinations.
He stressed that it will amount to intellectual dishonesty.
He said the examinations conducted by the council took into cognizance the three domains that measured ability to recall, apply and practicalise.
Eguridu said that in psychomotor domain, candidates did practical tests in agricultural science in the farm and the examiner supervised their actual agricultural practice.
The WAEC official said that even Netherlands where people went to learn CBT had yet to apply CBT in all its examinations.
