This is great news that
will gladden the heart of many who are patiently waiting for JAMB to announce
the date for the sale of 2017 UTME forms. I must say "Patience"
is indeed a virtue. It really pays! So many have become preys to "fraudulent
fraudsters' due to lack of impatience.
The Joint Admission and
Matriculations Board (JAMB) says it will begin the sale of the 2017 Unified
Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) forms on March 20.
This was made known by
JAMB's Head of Public Relations, Dr Fabian Benjamin in an interview with the
News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday in Bwari.
According to him, the
date was fixed following an agreement that was reached on the harmonization of
the examination timetable at a meeting with other examination bodies on January
24, 2017.The Statement reads:
We will begin the sale of the admission forms on March 20, while UTME is scheduled to hold in May.
We are ready to commence the sales of the 2017/2018 admission forms for UTME and Direct Entry forms on the said date.
It is also important to
note there will be an optional mock examination, organized by JAMB before the
2017 UTME.
According to the board,
the purpose of the mock examination is to let candidate have a feel of what the
main examination will be like.
The board, however, said
the mock examination would be “completely optional’’ as it would not be a
prerequisite for writing the actual UTME. In other words, candidates can either
choose to take the mock exam or leave it.
Going by the information
published on its Twitter handle, @JAMBHQ, the date of the Mock examination will
soon be announced.
