The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced that 1.3 million candidates (representing 70.7 per cent) scored less than 200 points in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
In a statement released yesterday by its Public Communication Advisor, Dr Fabian Benjamin, the examination body noted that only a handful scored up to 217 in the cancelled exercise, and all results are now released except those of candidates who committed examination infractions and those slated for mop-up exams.
Releasing the rescheduled UTME results yesterday after the initial server glitches that marred the exercise in six states of the Federation, Dr Benjamin said there were no high scorers in the cancelled sessions of the affected states, and the clarification was necessary as regards candidates who allegedly scored highly in the cancelled sessions and might desire to retain their previous results.
The Board also emphasised that the charges for short codes 55019/66019 (text messages) do not generate revenue for JAMB.
