The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said it will examine 176,408 candidates in its 2023 mock examination scheduled to hold on March 30.
JAMB’s Head of Public Affairs and Protocol, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, announced this in a statement in Abuja.
Benjamin said the board had also directed candidates who registered for this year’s Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) optional Mock-UTME that their notification slips would be ready for printing.
“All candidates for the Mock-UTME are to visit https://www.jamb.gov.ng., click on 2023 Mock-UTME on the MENU button to print their slips after inputting their registration number.
“This directive is only applicable to those candidates who had indicated interest to take the mock examination.
“The 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,” he said.
Benjamin said the board had also reiterated that the scheduled commencement time for the examination remained sacrosanct as there would be zero tolerance for malpractice.
