JAMB expresses satisfaction over conduct of 2022 UTME mock
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has expressed satisfaction over the conduct of its Mock Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) in 757 centres nationwide.
The board’s Head, Media and Information, Dr Fabian Benjamin, said this in an interview with Newsmen on Saturday in Lagos.
He said a total of 1.8 million candidates registered for this year’s main UTME.
According to Benjamin, not less than 175, 000 candidates participated in Saturday’s mock examination nationwide.
“I want to say we are satisfied with the conduct of today’s examination. It is to test run our facilities in the various accredited centres. The positive feelers we got from centres are beyond our expectations.
“I monitored the examination in Abuja and with reports we got from the field across the country showed that everything went on seamlessly.
“However, we are not taking the success recorded in today’s examination for granted because most of these centres operated below capacity. We will not leave any stone unturned to ensure that we get maximum result during our main examination scheduled for May.
“The board will continue to work assiduously to further scrutinise approved centres for the examination in a bid to ensure that all expectations are met, ” he assured.
