The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and the Computer Professionals Registration Council of Nigeria (CPN) have finalized arrangements to monitor all accredited Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres nationwide via live CCTV streaming during the 2021 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) commencing on Saturday, 19th June 2021.

JAMB to monitor 2021 UTME via live stream

Key Takeaways for 2021 UTME Candidates

  • Remote Live Streaming by IT Professionals: Following a courtesy visit by the Registrar of CPN, Dr. Muhammad Bello Aliyu, to JAMB National Headquarters in Abuja, CPN IT professionals will remotely monitor live video feeds from examination halls across the country to detect and prosecute any malpractice.
  • Mock Score Will Not Be Added to Main UTME: JAMB also reminded parents and candidates that scores from the 3rd June 2021 Mock-UTME will not be added to or used in place of the main UTME scores, as the mock test was strictly to familiarize candidates with the CBT system.

Stay completely away from examination malpractice and prepare thoroughly using the Mentra JAMB CBT app, available on both Android and iOS.

Thank God JAMB clarified that the Mock score will not be added to our main UTME score! Some people were spreading rumours that JAMB will use our Mock score.

Exactly, Somto! Your Mock score never counts toward your main UTME score. Only the main exam you write between June 19 and July 3 determines your official UTME score.
