JAMB will begin releasing the results of the 2023 UTME on Tuesday.
Three other groups of students who were unable to take the exam during the allotted time will also be given a make-up exam by JAMB.
A mop-up exam will be held by JAMB for three groups of students who were unable to take the exam during the allotted time.
This was stated in the test body's emergency management meeting minutes from the previous weekend.
The board noted in the minutes that the delay in disclosing the results was done to make sure that all required screenings had been completed.
“The Board would be releasing the results of candidates, who have taken the examination so far on Tuesday, 2nd May, 2023. The Board had delayed the release to ensure that all necessary screening are concluded besides ensuring that the mean and standard deviation are reasonably obtained before releasing these results.
“As candidates check their results on Tuesday, 2nd May, 2023, those who sat the examination but had challenges without being aware of such, would not see their results but would instead see their notification for rescheduled examination,” the minute read.
The testing authority also intends to hold a make-up exam for three categories of applicants who were unable to take the test during the allotted time.
“All candidates, who could not sit the 2023 UTME within their scheduled time owing to no fault of theirs, would be rescheduled to take the examination on Saturday, 6th May, 2023.
“Candidates under these categories are principally those who were verified at their centres but could not sit the examination; those who could not be biometrically verified, and those with mismatched data,” JAMB said.
The 2023 UTME which commenced on Tuesday, April 25, 2023, will end on Tuesday, May 2, 2023. About 1.6 million candidates sat for the exam.
