Many candidates have been asking
questions on the kind of preparations
they need ahead of their institutions'
admission screening exercise.


Like you already know, the screening as
stipulated by JAMB will involve the
verification of your documents and
physical examination of the candidates.
As we have always done, we would like to
use this medium to bring you up to
speed concerning what is expected of you
in preparation towards the screening
exercise of your institution.


For the sake of clarity and emphasis, I
would like to present them as bullet




1. Get Your O-level Results Ready:
Candidates are expected to present copies
of their O-level Certificates or Statement of
Results obtained in not more than two
sittings.

Another thing you should know is that
if it is up to four years you sat for
your O-level examination, your
institution will likely require you to
present the Original Certificate of the O-
level examination instead of statement of
results because it is expected that your
Original Certificate should be ready
after four years.


Therefore, if you sat for your O-level
examination four years ago and
beyond, it is advisable to go get your O-
level Certificate(s) ready before the
screening exercise of your institution.
For those, whose O-level certificates are not
yet available, they can present their
statement of result. For such candidates,
they may need to provide result checking
scratch card (NECO, WAEC, NABTEB, as
applicable).


For candidates still waiting for the
release of their results, you can go for
the screening with your O-level
registration slip.


Concerning the combination of results,
candidates can combine results even if it
is from different examination bodies e.g
WAEC and NECO. However, your
institution may not allow you to
combine NABTEB results with WAEC or
NECO results.


2. Determine If You Have the Right
Subjects For Your Course of Study:
To study your course of study in
any institution, you are required to
have a minimum of 5 credit passes in the
relevant O-level subjects. Many candidates
are not sure if their O-level subjects tally
with the course they intend to study.
Each course of study has specific
subjects a candidates must credit before
he/she qualifies for admission in that
particular course. Consult Google for that



3. Other documents you need To
present: In addition to your O-level
results, you are to present other
documents which may include;
i. Birth Certificate or Affidavit of Age
Declaration
ii. JAMB Original Result Slip.
iii. Screening Registration Slip (for
those that registered online)
iv. Local Government of Origin (this can be
obtained at your LGA Secretariat)



4. Physical examination: JAMB
disclosed that candidates will equally
be examined based on appearance to know
if they are cultists or "future
cultists". That sounds funny. I wonder
how you can tell who is a cultist or who
would likely be one just by looking at
the person's face unless you are a
fortune teller or a prophet.


Be that as it may, candidates should
ensure they dress formal to the screening
exercise. Do not put on any thing that
will may make you look irresponsible.
If you have tattoos or piercings on your
body, make sure they are removed or well
covered before appearing for the screening.



If you have additional questions
concerning this, you can use the
comment box to ask your questions.


Good Luck Y'all
