Ahead of the 2022 JAMB Mock-UTME scheduled for Saturday, 9th April 2022, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has clarified who is eligible to sit for the mock test and how the ₦1,000 centre service charge applies.

JAMB announces eligibility for 2022 UTME mock, candidates to pay N1000

1. Who Is Eligible to Write the 2022 JAMB Mock?

  • Only candidates who registered early and explicitly ticked "Yes" to indicate interest in taking the Mock-UTME during their registration at the CBT centre are eligible.
  • If you are eligible, you will be able to generate and print your 2022 Mock Examination Slip from the JAMB portal showing your assigned centre and time.

2. Who Pays the ₦1,000 Service Charge (And Who Is Exempted)?

  • Private / Partner CBT Centres: Candidates assigned to privately owned or partner CBT centres must pay ₦1,000 in cash at the centre on exam day as a service charge.
  • JAMB-Owned Professional Testing Centres (PTCs): Candidates assigned to sit the mock examination at JAMB-owned CBT centres are exempted and will not pay the ₦1,000 fee.

Even if you did not register for the physical mock exam, you can take realistic timed CBT mocks anytime on the Mentra JAMB CBT app, available on both Android and iOS.

How do I know if my centre is a JAMB-owned centre so I know whether to pay the N1,000?

JAMB-owned centres usually have 'JAMB Professional Testing Centre (PTC)' or 'JAMB Zonal/State Office' in their centre name on your slip, Jessica. Still hold ₦1,000 cash in your pocket just in case!
