Post-UTME To Be Scrapped Soon - JAMB Boss

According to the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) , Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, the post-UTME exams conducted by higher institutions will soon come to an end with the introduction of CBT Mode in UTME.

He mentioned that following the introduction of CBT, examination malpractice as well, will be completely eradicated with time.

Post-UTME test was introduced because of the level of malpractice that trailed the UTME examinations in the past. However, the JAMB boss is of the opinion that when examination malpractice in UTME is completely eradicated with the introduction of CBT there will definitely be no need for post-UTME in higher institutions.

He further stressed that the CBT Mode was also introduced to prepare candidates to face the academic challenges in higher institutions.
