The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has concluded all technical and logistical arrangements to conduct the 2020 UTME Mock Examination nationwide on Tuesday, 18th February 2020.

JAMB Concludes Arrangement To Hold 2020 Mock Exam On February 18th

Key Guidelines for the 2020 JAMB Mock Exam

  • N600 Fee for Private CBT Centres Only: JAMB clarified that the mock examination is free from the Board's end, except for the ₦600 service charge payable at the venue to private CBT centre owners for candidates posted to non-JAMB-owned centres. Candidates posted to JAMB-owned Professional Test Centres (PTCs) pay nothing.
  • Mock Scores Do Not Count Toward Main UTME: An initiative introduced by Registrar Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the voluntary mock exam familiarises candidates with the CBT environment and tests centre facilities. Results from the mock exam will NOT be added to or affect your main UTME score.
  • End of Illegal Admission Regularisation: JAMB also reiterated that the era of condoning or regularising illegal backdoor admissions is permanently over.

Whether you are taking the February 18 mock exam or preparing from home, sharpen your speed and accuracy with the Mentra JAMB CBT app, available on both Android and iOS.

Hi Aisha, nothing negative happens if you miss the mock exam because it is completely voluntary and does not affect your main UTME in March. However, if you can make it, it is great practice!
