A waec examiner once said this. For instance if you're to solve a quadratic equation and you missed the final answer, you've missed all. They'd not award marks step-by-step. It was in waec marking scheme, according to him. He's now a prof in a leading university. He's been marking for waec since 1992.

Or when you were in the secondary school( im not talking of nowadays ir indomie generation), was your maths teacher marking answers step by step?
This is horrific to hear.
I am sorry, I don't belive you here

Will they release another set of results or what?

As someone said up there, the best they can do is to reduce cutoff marks and plead with the various institutions to do same
Do u now feel that can offer Medicine students admission with 130?

They can issue them another exam na.
That's no big deal

Eriokanmi:
The best they can do is reduce the admission cut off scores for universities and ensure every institution complies. Since the result is so bad as seen, the worst in decades, jamb should just reduce university admission cut off for major curses to 150. Let the post UTME now decide who's capable enough to earn a slot in their respective courses of study.

Seriously, I don't see any big deal in this. In my time, if you scored 220 for instance, you're a guru. This was before the advent of the Internet. Their marking scheme was so strict. If you don't understand any question, just leave it jejelly because if you attempt it wrongly, your mark would be deducted from those you got correctly. Waec back then wasn't easy to come by. If you managed to have an A in core subjects, na celebration galore. Combination of waec results used to be order of the day, even for major courses. In brochures you'd see 5 o'level credit passes at a sitting or 6 credit passes in 2 sittings. Nothing like post utme. Even in law, P was allowed in maths.

But nowadays, you see students scoring As all through. Marking schemes had been adjusted over time to favour a particular region or tribe, which is part of what's affecting the standard of education in Nigeria. In maths for instance, those marking waec back then would be interested only in the final answer. If the workings were supposed have 5 steps and you got the last answer wrongly, especially where they're asking you to round off your answer to the nearest whole number and you got it wrongly, they'd not spare you, except the marker just wanted to show mercy on you and used his pen to help you write the correct answer, then, mark it. Otherwise you'd miss the whole question and that's the reason we hardly saw candidates who had an A1 in maths back then. But nowadays,maths marking schemes are in steps same as other subjects that involve calculations. Even if you got the final answer wrongly but you got the steps correctly, you'd still earn some marks.

I wish we could go back to that era. Our system of education can be overhauled if they could start from that level.
Just give them another JAMB to avoid all these excuses

This is an absolute disgrace.
A few days ago, when I pointed out the inconsistencies in the JAMB results, some dingbats turned it into a tribal spat.

Now, we can all see that JAMB is not a reliable organization.

Meanwhile, Minister of Education, that dumb@ss said that students fail because anti-cheating measures are working. Oponu rada rada.

education needs to be rebranded. The usual custom of teacher passing instruction through the blackboard to students is not working. Students these days have low attention span and are easily distracted. The first thing that should be inculcated into the learning curriculum is discipline. Make learning easier and simplified. It is not easy but with time it will improve learning. Teachers should give students detailed guidelines and simplified summary of lesson. The students can work with the teacher' guide and be more creative with their learning also importance of blended learning and flipped classroom. We need to build children who can think outside the box and become problem solvers not the teachers spoon feeding the children. Am a teacher and I can say teachers do a lot for children in fact we think for them. Private schools should be regulated there are too many of them and lots are substandard.
You seem to be a truthful person.

Still, don't you think the laziness and instability in the children is promted by their mothers who have money to pay for nonsense

So, blame the teachers the less.

People who submit their children to me don't regret. Their results have never been woeful. If you want, I can send you the current jamb score from my end

I teach sometimes and I teach the better part of what people have done on ground. Not all teachers are at fault. One thing is that i don't encourage malpractice and laziness

Lol chief
Let's be open minded. A child scored 300+ in 2024 UTME, and has a WAEC result studded with A's and B's, but suddenly gets 130 in 2025 utme don't you think it's a red flag?

Also numerous people who wrote the exam on 26th have been complaining about mass failure.

Don't you think JAMB should be probed?
In any exam, there are few cases of anomalies where large population is involved. I had a case in 2019 of a boy and one in 2014 of a girl. Those ones can push for remarking. But writing off the only true exam body in Nigeria is what I will never take.

Thanks for sharing your thought

This is not a problem of the whole educational system. Dont muddle issues. There are some people in this government who are trying to make things difficult for others out of tbeir ingrained Pettiness. That is the problem. Educational system in Nigeria has always been a mess, but we seldom failed JAMB this bad. They want to be raking in billions selling JAMB forms every year..
Let's investigate Tinubus ethnic henchmen stationed at JAMB!
Just imagine how you ended you baseless complaint.

Tinubu ethic henchmen...
An Anambara girl came top last two years or so.
What a heck is this myopic mentality some of you have got in Nigeria?
Keep sentiment aside when teaching and assessing children.
Some of you mislead these kids into malpractice mentality, collecting money from their parents without drilling them in truth.
Later come here to wail and blame innocent JAMB.
If you don't mind, contact me to show you my schools result, not from the western part of the country.
Pls, teach children the truth, don't cheat their future

Did I hear them call the result an unprecedented one?

In two sessions ago, only 14% passed above average.

So what are these ones saying now?
Unless you want JAMB to start giving fake test like classroom exams, WAEC and NECO plus some Nigerian tertiary institutions

They will wail and rest. The Prof I know will never compromise. He will rather resign

I can assure you that if this generation answered AHMED SALIM's JAMB of our time, they would end up with less than 2% pass given this condition of biometric verification that prevents much malpractices

If one isn't careful, the government will use media to twist things and push useless agendas.

Have you seen how the narrative is being shifted from POOR PERFORMANCE to malpractice. Some people have been claiming that their wards performed abysmally bad, and are proceeding to sue JAMB.

For the eeeedyiots that will turn this thread to a tribal war, shame on you and your generations. Politicians are using your brains for peanuts.
"Proceeding to court"... i heard you said

Shame on you their protagonist

How many times your own parents proceeded to court that you failed JAMB?

Better encourage hardwork among the upcoming generation. Stop supporting laziness.

A cardinal appeared on the balcony in St Peter’s Square to announce that American Robert Prevost, who will be known as Pope Leo XIV, had been chosen by the votes of the Conclave to be the next pontiff.

Shortly after, the new pope appeared on the balcony to cheers from the crowds filling St Peter's Square.

The 69-year-old Chicago-born pontiff delivered his first speech, bringing a "greeting of peace" and God's love to the faithful below him.

He paid tribute to his predecessor, and even spoke briefly in Spanish to thank his former diocese.

“Help us, and help each other, build bridges,” he told the crowd of more than 40,000 people in St Peter’s Square.
