… Exam Proper Commences April 25th, Ends May 3rd
The Joint Admissions and
Matriculation Board (JAMB) has
directed candidates, who had
registered for the 2023 optional Mock-UTME but could not sit the examination, which was held on Thursday, 30th March 2023, on account of technical challenges, to print their Notification Slips from Friday, 14th April, 2023 for the
rescheduled mock examination scheduled to hold tomorrow Tuesday,18th April, 2023.
The Board in a statement by Fabian Benjamin, Head of Public Affairs and Protocol explained that
candidates, who took the earlier Mock-UTME on Thursday, 30th March, 2023, and whose results have been released, are not eligible for the rescheduled mock
examination.
In essence, the rescheduled Mock-UTME is only for candidates, who indicated UTME are to visit https://wwwjamb.gou.ng and click on “SUPPLEMENTARY MOCK UTME SLIP PRINTING” on the menu bar to know the time and venue of their examination.
The rescheduled (supplementary)
Mock-UTME Notification Slip would contain the Candidates’
Registration Number, Venue, Date,
and Time of the Examination to
enable them to easily locate their
centres before the examination.
Candidates are also enjoined to be
at their centres one hour before the examination for biometric
verification.
The Board enjoins candidates to
note that the commencement time
for the rescheduled examination as contained in their Notification Slips, is sacrosanct.
In addition, the Board also restates its zero tolerance for examination malpractice and urges candidates to refrain from any ignoble act or conduct during the rescheduled examination.
In the same vein, candidates are
advised against going into the
examination halls with prohibited
items such as wristwatches,
calculators, flash drives, phones,
among others.
They are also warned to desist from the application of “laale” (he nna) to do fancied drawings and paintings on their hands to avoid unnecessary interference with the whorls of their fingers which could impede biometric verification.
Similarly, the Board wishes to use this opportunity to inform the general public that the 2023 UTME will hold between Tuesday, 25th April and Wednesday, 3rd May, 2023.
