The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) on Tuesday said it had put necessary machinery in motion to conduct the 2016 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

Notice of the arrangements is contained in a statement issued by the Board’s Head of Media and Information, Dr Fabian Benjamin, made available in Lagos.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that JAMB is responsible for the conduct of the UTME for admission into the nation’s public and private tertiary institutions.

Benjamin stated that the all Computer Based Test (CBT) mode examination would be held in more than 400 centres within and outside Nigeria.

He added that “JAMB has approved more centres in order to give Nigerians the best computer based test ever conducted in a large scale by any public examination body. The Board insisted that these centres must meet best global requirements.”

“Some of the requirements are steady power supply, minimum of 200 computers, including Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS), accessible road, security must be guaranteed and the hall must have a waiting room. This year, there are also some innovations which will ensure that candidates write the examination under best atmosphere.’’

The Board also stated that the sale of application documents for the examination would close on Friday, Jan. 29.

According to the statement, the website will subsequently be shut on Friday, Feb. 5. The examination will be conducted between end of February and March. It did not specify the exact date of commencement. The Board noted that it would continue to introduce new measures to ensure that it remained on top in the area of assessment and measurement.

JAMB to use 400 centres for first computer-based test

JAMB to use 400 centres for first computer-based test
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, on Thursday advised candidates intending to register for the 2015 Computer Based Test, CBT, to do so immediately.
JAMB said the advice became necessary because the applications would close on January 30.
A statement signed by the spokesperson of JAMB, Fabian Benjamin, in Lagos noted that over 1.4 million candidates had registered for the first ever all- computer mode of examination.
It said the sale of forms for the examination commenced since September, 2014.
“The 2015 UTME application closes on Friday, 30th January, 2015 and all candidates desirous of sitting for the examination are advised to immediately obtain the application documents at the designated banks,” Mr. Benjamin said. “This is to ensure that they get registered and avoid being left out. In view of the above, the board has completed all processes and preparations and has put in place all logistics needed to conduct a hitch-free examination.”
It said that no fewer than 400 centres would be used for the examination in Nigeria and abroad.
According to the statement, members of other examination bodies in Africa and beyond have indicated interest to understudy the board’s CBT during the examination.
It said the development was an indication of the confidence of the international community in the board’s ability as manifested in the two previous exercises in 2013 and 2014.
The statement urged candidates to be conscious of the fact that the 2015 UTME was only on the CBT mode.
“Candidates are to disregard any contrary information as the examination is scheduled to hold beginning March 4th 2015,” he said.
The statement further advised candidates to shun all acts that were contrary to the conduct of an examination of international standard like the board’s CBT. It warned that the board would not hesitate to impose severe sanction on any candidate found wanting.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the board wishes to state that any candidate who registered twice will have his or her result cancelled,” it said. “JAMB has a mechanism that detects double registration, irrespective of how it is disguised. The board has also made adequate arrangements to ensure that blind candidates sit for the 2015 UTME, using CBT.”
