JAMB Mock Exam 2022: Things To Note During The Exam + Contest Alert

Mandatory ₦1,000 CBT Centre Fee & Arrival Time

  • Service Charge: Every candidate sitting for the 2022 Mock examination at a privately owned CBT centre must bring ₦1,000 in cash to pay the centre operator as a service charge (candidates assigned to JAMB-owned centres do not pay).
  • Arrival Time: Arrive at your assigned CBT centre at least 30 minutes before the time printed on your Mock slip.
  • Prohibited Gadgets: Do not carry mobile phones, smartwatches, or electronic devices into the CBT hall.

8 Key Things to Observe Inside the CBT Hall

  1. Check if functional CCTV cameras are installed in the hall.
  2. Observe the computer setup (laptops, desktop PCs, or thin-clients) and whether both the keyboard shortcuts and mouse work smoothly.
  3. Note how the login screen and CBT examination interface are laid out.
  4. Check the exact position of the countdown timer, subject tabs, on-screen calculator, and question navigation grid.
  5. Confirm the total time allotted for the four subjects.
  6. Confirm the number of questions in Use of English and the other three subjects.
  7. Take note of the difficulty level and syllabus topics tested, especially questions from The Life Changer.
  8. Observe any new biometric verification rules introduced by JAMB.

Does the score we get in tomorrow's JAMB Mock exam count toward our main UTME score in May?

No, Praise! The JAMB Mock score is strictly for practice and testing the CBT systems; it is never added to or used in place of your main UTME score.
