JAMB Declares Only Resit Scores Valid for Affected UTME Candidates
Key takeaways
  • The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board ( JAMB) has taken a decisive step towards ensuring fairness in education admission processes.
  • It has announced that it will only recognize the scores from the most recent retake of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination ( UTME ) for those candidates who were required to revisit the test due to administrative complications.
  • This policy has effectively nullified any prior examination scores, slotting in the retaken exam's scores as the valid measure of applicant's achievement.
