JAMB to set a new date for candidates who experience technical difficulties during the mock exam
|JAMB has stated that the board is aware that some candidates were unable to take the mock exam on March 30th, 2023 due to technical difficulties in some of the exam centers. The exercise was held in 725 locations across the country. According to JAMB, candidates affected by technical issues and glitches will be rescheduled to take the examination at a later date at no cost.
The Board would investigate all issues raised by the mock exam and take appropriate action to ensure a better and more efficient process during the main exam. The main exam comes after the UTME mock.
They are specifically designed to help candidates adequately prepare for the upcoming JAMB exam, as they contain everything you need to excel.
It should be noted that prior to the 2023 exercise, the Board had disclosed in a statement that it would be introducing some new measures that had never been used before and would want to use the opportunity of the mock exercise to assess their functionality.
The Board would like to take this opportunity to apologize to all candidates for any inconvenience this has caused them. This is part of a development process aimed at enhancing the Board’s efforts to improve the quality, security, and sanctity of its services while also ushering in the next phase of its transformational agenda.
The exercise also provided the Board with a rare opportunity to fine-tune this process for improved results. The Board thanks the candidates and their parents for their patience and promises to work hard to perfect the system for which they have made such a sacrifice.
The benefits of the exercise cannot be quantified because the Board has taken note of the challenges and, as a result, is better positioned to deliver a seamless UTME exercise in April 2023, as projected.
The Board will continue to ask candidates and the general public for their patience as it works to develop new and better methods of improving the quality of large-scale assessments in Nigeria.
