How to check JAMB exam center, date, and time: 2023/2024 update
After registering for your Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) successfully, the next thing you should do is to know your JAMB exam center, date, and time. UTME is a computer-standardized exam for prospective undergraduates in Nigeria, and the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) oversees this exam. Nigeria's education system requires high school students to sit for UTME so that JAMB can determine who qualifies to join which tertiary-level institution.

The JAMB cut-off mark for university admission is 140, 100 for polytechnics, and 80 colleges, while the post-UTME cut-off mark varies with each university. Some schools start with an average mark of 50%, while others have higher cut-off marks. Therefore, always check the post-UTME cut-off mark for the course and school you want before registering for your JAMB UTME exam.

JAMB UTME exams are not meant to demoralize or scare you. On the contrary, these exams help students discover their abilities, talents, career, and capabilities. Refrain from tensing since it is a Computer-Based Test (CBT) with multiple-choice questions, and you do it online.
Please note that university selection is a vast process. Universities not only select those who meet their UTME cut-off marks, but also consider if the student meets the course requirements and other factors. For instance, a university might also enroll students who picked it as their first choice before giving those who selected it as a second option chances for admission. So, if you fail to get into the school and course of your choice, understand that besides your UTME scores, some factors may have influenced the school's decision.
