About one million, eight hundred and fifty thousand candidates
(1.85m) will take part in the Computer-Based Test (CBT) of the Joint
Admissions and Matriculation Board which starts today, February 27, 2016 across the country.
JAMB, through Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, board’s registrar, said on Thursday that more than 1.85 million candidates enrolled for the 2016 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) on its platform.
Prof. Ojerinde said that this year’s figure was a significant improvement on the 1.47 million candidates who applied for the same examination in 2015, adding that the figure showed an increase of 113, 673 applicants against last year’s.
The JAMB registrar said it was expected that all candidates who were
unable to conclude their registration process as at February 5, would
seize the opportunity of the 48 hours grace of the opening of the portal
to do so before mid-night of February 25.
