JAMB has Sent Important Message to Candidates Sitting for 2023 Jamb Mock Exam scheduled to hold on the 30th March, 2023. Read below.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that preparations for the 2023 UTME mock exam, scheduled to hold on March 30th, 2023, are now complete. The Board has recently conducted a training exercise to update its technical staff on the latest innovations put in place for the seamless conduct of both the Mock-UTME and the main UTME exams.
According to the Board, printing of the mock exam slips has already commenced. It is therefore advised that candidates who registered for the mock exam should proceed to check their registered email addresses for information regarding their exam centres and other important details.
JAMB has also assured all candidates that the mock exam will be a simulation of the actual UTME, and that it is designed to prepare candidates for the main exam. The Board therefore urges all candidates to take advantage of the mock exam to prepare adequately and improve their chances of performing well in the main UTME.
Candidates are strongly advised by the Board to arrive at their designated examination centres at least one hour before the scheduled start time for biometric verification. The Board emphasizes that the scheduled start time for the examination is strictly observed and urges candidates to plan accordingly. In addition, JAMB reiterates its zero-tolerance policy for exam malpractice and warns that any candidate caught engaging in such acts will face severe consequences.
It is also important for candidates to note that certain items, such as wristwatches, calculators, flash drives, and phones, are prohibited in the examination hall. A comprehensive list of prohibited items can be found by clicking the provided link HERE. Furthermore, candidates are warned against applying “laale” (henna) to their hands for decorative purposes, as it can interfere with the biometric verification process by disrupting the whorls on their fingers. It is crucial for candidates to adhere to these guidelines to ensure a smooth and successful examination experience.
