It doesn't still warrant cancelling the examination. What about those who have result, they will have to wait a year because they couldn't conduct Waec early?? and besides Waec is scheduled to hold September so by November, their results should be out.

All I know is, some set of people will be affected. #lobatan

darasiiimiii:
It seems impossible for this year's Jamb exams to be cancelled.There will be a compromise of some sorts.Either admission will be based only on the Utme results or Schools will conduct their own exams.

okay

dunsin125:
So you think Jamb will be cancelled because of awaiting result candidates, it's not going to happen. Don't forget, some candidates have their results already and also Jamb also said universities should go ahead with admitting those who have their results already.

More than 50% doesn't have WAEC result and that's enough as an excuse, if only those candidates can protest for justice lol.

In short, the whole system is upside down. Solution is beyond local man's comprehension. Cancellation of JAMB 2020 would be a nightmare to WAEC result holders.

DharmieDhrey:
Ohh,wow..what if post UTME holds. how would the calendar be adjusted?

New intake would be delayed while 100lvl will rush everything within a few months.

DharmieDhrey:
come to think of it,let's assume admission process goes smoothly. Like UI for instance,where the freshers are yet to resume,how will the newly admitted students fit into the academic calendar?

UI don't give a damn about Jamb's orders. Commencement of admission process by August 21 is for other institutions (lol). Expect UNILAG, OAU, UI post UTME form earliest by October/November.

The calendar is scattered already. Expect the unexpected!!! Either this year's Jamb or next year's will be canceled to fix things up.

Kokumajutsu:
They will que up. While the calenda will be accelerated.

Stress for freshers. I pity them o

olsamlaw:
Boss I'm bothered too o...maybe I should switch to schools that are not using olevel. Coz I might not stand a chance with my Waec. Make 321 no waste

Which school doesn't use WAEC? try north. Online post utme might be conducted tho

olsamlaw:
Jamb said schools should start admission by August.

That shows there is possibility no post utme. I don't know what criteria the schools are going to use especially UI.

I have a strong jamb score but my Olevel is but weak ooo.

Let's rub minds abeg

I'm bothered about that too

While great video content is always the first step, there’s another one you may have missed: adding subtitles.

Captioning your videos can have a big effect on how successful they are. This is true for movies, TV shows, social media videos, training content, and any other kind of video you might record and share.

Why are subtitles so important?
You might be surprised. We’ll take a look at seven facts and reasons you should add subtitles to your video, then talk a bit about how to do it.
You can view the visual summary of this post below or skip ahead to read a detailed explanation of each fact and how to add subtitles effectively.

1. Not Everyone Can Hear Your Audio
Over 28 million American adults are deaf or hard of hearing—and if you don’t have subtitles on your videos, that’s a huge audience you won’t reach.

No matter what your content is, you don’t want to exclude millions of people from watching it. Your target market includes people who are deaf or hard of hearing, and not subtitling your videos excludes them.
That’s just bad business. Think inclusively and add subtitles to your videos.

As you’ll see, though, it’s not just people with hearing difficulties that appreciate subtitles.

2. Many People Don’t or Can’t Turn on Audio
You’ve probably heard that 85% of Facebook videos are watched on mute . Of course, that’s just for a single social network. Snapchat, for example, says that two-thirds of its videos are played with sound.

No matter what the statistics say, many people silence audio on their phones or computers because they don’t want or need to. Maybe they’re listening to their favorite song and don’t want to pause it. Or they’re in a public place and can’t be disruptive.

Even if your videos target an audience that’s likely to turn video sound on, there are going to be some people who won’t. And those people will miss out on your video if it’s not subtitled.

3. Subtitles Improve Comprehension
People learn in different ways. Some learn best through doing. Others through watching. Still others through listening. And if your viewers aren’t visual learners, they’re not going to get as much out of your video.

That’s where subtitles come in. People who learn best via reading will get more out of your videos if they have captions. The combination of video and text is strong, and appeals to more people than just video.

In fact, many people prefer watching videos with subtitles even if they don’t have to. A quick search reveals many people turn captions on when they’re watching TV shows or movies, even if they’re native speakers of the original language. They just understand it better.

Even if those people could watch without subtitles, they’ll appreciate that you made your video better for them.

4. Not Everyone Speaks Your Language
Great content transcends language boundaries . . . but only if it’s translated. You might want people from all over the world to watch your videos, but if they can’t understand them, it’s going to be hard.

English is the most commonly used language on the wider internet, but Mandarin Chinese isn’t far behind. Some parts of the world use the internet mostly in Arabic. Or Spanish. Take your target audience’s language into account when you’re making your videos.
And when you can, offer subtitles in multiple languages.

5. Viewers Are More Engaged
In 2009, PLYMedia found that 80% more people watched a video to completion when subtitles were included. Videos without subtitles were watched to 66% to completion, compared to 91% with subtitles on average.

Of course, these are correlations, and the cause is open to interpretation. But 80% is a figure you can’t ignore. If there’s a chance that subtitle help videos get more views, you should invest the time and money it takes to caption it.
Keep that in mind as you read this next fact.

6. Subtitles Increase Video Social Reach
Instapage found that captioned videos on Facebook had 16% higher reach than those without. They had 15% more shares, 17% better reactions, and 26% more call-to-action clickthroughs.

In short, they performed better on every measure that matters. Combine that with the fact that more videos get watched if they have subtitles, and the take-away becomes clear.

Subtitles make a big difference in how people see, react to, and engage with your videos.

7. Captions improve SEO
While the quality of your content should be your main concern, we know you’re thinking about SEO, too. And video subtitles can give you a boost in the search rankings.

Many of the benefits above also have an effect on SEO. If people spend more time watching your videos, you’ll have increased dwell time, which has a positive effect on your rankings. Social shares can play a role, too. And appealing to more people helps boost visits and reduce bounce rates.

But the subtitles themselves can also help, because Google indexes captions that you’ve added to videos (they don’t index automatically generated captions, like those YouTube can add for you).

That can make a big difference in how many people find your website, watch your video, and engage with your content.

How to Add Subtitles to Your Videos
Now that you’ve seen why it’s crucial to subtitle your videos, it’s time to start. The premise behind adding subtitles to your videos is simple. All you need to do is identify the times you’d like a particular subtitle displayed, then add the text.

HumanCalc:
I am in big wahala oo. Jamb change of institution is not going now and ebsu has started post UTME application today. I reached to EBSU support number and the person told me that people that didn't choose them in jamb can register but I have tried and it keeps saying that it can't find my jamb reg no in the jamb list. The form will be available for just 3 weeks oo.

Btw, someone should tell zeeknow to shut up jare.

. Don't mind the official. Jamb hasn't sent your data to EBSU and they won't do that until you apply for change of institution.

The bad news is, Change of institution portal is inaccessible for now. Just pray it opens before this week runs out because even after the change, it will take at least two weeks to take effect.

My advice: Contact aspirants (many oo) with the same issue like yours and protest on twitter or bombard them with tickets @ https://www.jamb.gov.ng/Support
