The Joint Admissions and Matriculation
Board (JAMB) has released the 2013
Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination
(UTME) results. The board, however, withheld 12,110
results for possible disciplinary action.
The Registrar of JAMB, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde,
announced this at a news conference on
the release of the results in Bwari, FCT, on
Friday. The registrar said after thorough
processing of answer scripts of the
candidates who sat for the examination,
the board discovered some forms of
malpractice perpetuated during the
conduct of the examination. “However, the results of 68,309 candidates
from various centres are undergoing
further screening to ascertain the
culpability of 12,110 candidates’ results.“
A total of 1,629,102 candidates applied to
sit for the Paper Pencil Test (PPT), while 15,008 candidates applied for the Dual
Based Test, bringing the number of
candidates to 1,644,110. “The general performance of candidates in
this year’s examination shows remarkable
improvement compared with last year.
“Ten candidates scored 300 marks and
above, while 127,017 candidates scored
between 1-159 marks. “About 40,692 candidates’ results were
invalid due to either multiple shading or no
shading at all. After processing all the
results, the board also discovered that
about 47,974 candidates were absent.“
The registrar assured the candidates that their results could be accessed on the JAMB
Website: www.myjambresult.com using their registration numbers. He said about 40 centres would be
screened to ascertain their culpability and
warned the public against Internet
fraudsters.
“Information reaching JAMB shows
Internet fraudsters are already telling candidates that their results could be
upgraded in one form or the other. “
This is pure deceit, the public and
candidates are hereby advised to disregard
these fraudsters since they do not have
access to our data. “Let me once again state that candidates
are allowed to change their choices of
institutions and courses once only, this
change has to be effected within two
weeks from today. “
Ojerinde said the Computer Based Test (CBT) is scheduled to take place from May
18 to June 1 and appealed to candidates to
reprint their e-registration slips afresh to
further ascertain their CBT centres.
