xender:
we ain't agitating for this though. All we need is our real scores for this years utme.


on bringing back the paper and pencil test(PPT) I don't think it's a welcome development. They should think of how to improve on the computer based test(CBT),to avoid a repetition of the poorly conducted utme2016.

SECONDED

Generalkorex:
House Of Reps Orders JAMB To Revert To Paper-pencil Test

The agitations from candidates may have started yielding fruits as the House of Representatives has asked the Federal Ministry of Education to direct the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) to revert to pencil-paper method in the conduct of UTME or adopt both PPT and CBT so that candidates can opt for any one of their choice.
This followed a motion moved by a lawmaker from Lagos State, Mr. Oghene Emma-Egoh, on the “conflicting” scores of candidates who took the examination.
The law maker stressed that the technical errors experiences during the examination has invariably dashed the hopes of many of these candidates in gaining admission this year.
The law maker further pointed to two cases of conflicting results. One is that of Ibrahim Shawulu from Kogi State, who was said to have scored 399 out of 400, and in less than 24 hours his score was reduced to 199.”
Another is that of Foluke, the 17-year-old girl in Ejigbo-Lagos, who scored an aggregate of 156 and when the result was checked again she had an aggregate of 196.”
Based on these and other technical flaws that marred the conduct of the 2016 UTME, the house of Representatives is of the opinion that JAMB does not have what it takes to manage the Computer Based Test.

weither we like it or not,technology will take over,d earlier we get used to it d bettr

that's fake technology

It will be better that way since there are vast of candidates from villages who may have no knowledge of computer system and that create a lot of difficulties for them during the excercise.

Woh Most Of The Candidates Want Is To Make CBT optional...#Choice

Bring back HSC A LEVEL. JAMB is now synonymous to baba ijebu.

To all admission seekers, IJMB A level, GCE A level (Oxford and Cambridge) and pre-degree programs are the way to go.

I know a very brilliant guy that has been messed up big time twice now due to technical insufficiency at CBT centers.

wetin the guy fit do. Na to siddon de look. Waiting for another year.

This people gan sef. Candidates are asking for a remark House of reps is saying we should go back to PPT. When will Nigeria move with the tide. Infact PPT is the surest way to fail candidates.

Abeg they shuld leave Jamb and stop Post UTME. Or scrap Jamb and let universities conduct entrance exams.
Except we improve power, certain technologically driven operation can't work in dis 9ja.....let somebody tell those clueless Senate/House of Rep members dat d solution to head ache is never cutting the head

In an environment with no light a no proper logistics in place, technology cannot take over o. If na lie, ask those who wrote the exam.

If germs (sorry I meant JAMB) is SS4, then post Jamb should be ss5. Then common entrance should be primary 7.

it's not just the right time, the earliest time to get use to it is right from schools.

how many schools study computer science as a practical course(including the universities).

their laziness to keep files is what brought about this clumsy idea and enforcing it.

if jamb will be done on systems then why shouldn't WAEC and Post Ume?it should be by choice.

It has been said over and again. The reps have no power to "order" JAMB to do anything. They occupy at best, an advisory role.

Okay i just came here to show my tongue

Olodo

It's been Jamb, P square, Cleavage and Snakes on Nairaland.

I tire Ooo

They also love bringing olajumoke stuff here

I advice everyone still waiting on jamb to ; Keep up the fight, protest , keep speaking out. Because you wont move to the next step in your education without clearing it.
I honestly think Jamb should be scrapped. And all schools allowed to set their own exams and admissions. There will always be errors when just one body handle the admission of thousands of people. This are peoples future and life here!

chido20:
jamb shud be scrapped





jst raising a motion

Notion

register on www.cfalandz.com/application get the chance to study within west africa ,and also get access to direct entry for ijmb,diploma + affordable fees

Our tetiary education system needs to be more flexible JAMB SHOULD be every six months and the result should be valid for 2 years . Then all tertiary institution should conduct admission twice a year
