2009 Ume/Jamb Online E-registration Portal (get Update Here)

The UME portal for this year is quite surprising, center and examinatination number are automatically generated upon online form submission, I feel that is a nice development. Good luck all.

Please can someone help here. I've been trying to do a registration on the JAMB site but the pix has been rejected repeatedly despite the fact that it is JPEG format. I get messages like "Invalid format". Please help.

your passport must be at least 15kb squarely, that's all

for those with pix problem you can reduce the size of your pix by using Microsoft Office Picture Manager.open the picture with Microsoft Office Picture Manager,then u click on edit picture,click on resize then u can use the custom height and width with that u can make the height and width to be 120*120 which will make the pic to be around 15kb

I actually took the image with a digital camera, so I now resized it on www.picresize.com and that's where the problem started. But, after thinking about some factors I navigated to www.resizr.com to resize it again and finally it was accepted.

Abeg una try give the guy small thing oh!

please i want to confirm if the user name and password requested on the jamb registration page is that of yahoo or one needs to register a fresh one for jamb purpose

AN OPEN LETTER TO JAMB/SIDMACH PARTNERSHIP:


Dear Sidmach/JAMB Webmaster,

This is to bring to your attention my frustrations with registering my two wards for the 2007/2008 UME.

Since purchasing the scratch cards  3 days ago, I have tried unendingly to register these children but to no avail. My office internet link is superfast (a major Oil Company's Network) and very reliable but your registration forms seem to be having access problems with your server as they are too slow.

PLEASE COULD YOU RECTIFY WHATEVER THE PROBLEM IS FOR US TO REGISTER OUR WARDS.

I suggest you:

1. make the registration forms more user friendly (put save and modify buttons, page 1 and page 2 links, etc such that one can switch directly between the pages rather than starting afresh when links with your server fails)

2. reduce frequent and several access/communication to your server while on a page (let all drop-down data be loaded once the page loads rather than stepwise loading of database which annoyingly slows the process)

3. design each registration page to save automatically while continuing to the next page (to remove the frustration of going over and over to the first page to start afresh whenever the page looses contact with your server).

4. consider using a robust database management software (like Oracle etc ) such that the database querry wont be so time consuming.

You may not follow my suggestions but I believe these give you an overview of frustrations of lots of ume candidates and parents out there as well as potential future system improvement options.

HOPING TO SEE IMPROVED ONLINE REGISTRATION FORMS SOONEST, INORDER TO COMPLETE REGISTRATION OF MY 2 WARDS FOR THE 2008 UME.

Thank you,

Regards,

@lightson,

You said nothing but the truth
if they adhere to your advices, if will be very easier
i start my siblings registration since last week, at the point i had only 9 days to complete the first one,
to my greatest surprise when i logged in yesterday, i saw "You have 21 days left to complete your registration"
I was wondering if it was a msitake or they intentionally know what they are doing.
Pls lets beg JAMB oo!
I always know Nigeria as being a failure in online stuffs

Ever1 has been criticising Sidmach, including myself. Now I think www.jamb.org.ng is better, submission of forms now take 30 mins or less! what do you think. Bravo SIDMACH! but its rather late now.

Yes, it was their fault of course, we are not the novice they take us to be.
. ( http://www.jambng.com/Registration.pdf )

Now we know it is JAMB/SIDMACH who is supposed to increase their own bandwidth. I use a 128kbps bandwidth on VSAT and still find it difficult to register 1 candidate in 5 hours! Today, my bandwidth has not increased yet I register 1 candidate in 20 Minutes!

JAMB/SIDMACH, we look forward to getting better services from you eespeciallyas the PCE/Monopolytechnic is around the corner.

U need to confirm from those schools mind you, most of the information presented in JAMB brochure is either obsolete, or not valid at all. For example, JAMB says my school offers Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering, Medicine . . . these courses never existed and there are no plans for their existence in the nearest future. So, I advice you go to those schools and get first hand information there.
