JAMB shifts mock exam, UTME registration

JAMB shifts mock exam, UTME registration
THE Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, yesterday, extended the ongoing registration for the Unified Tertiary Matri-culation Examinations by two weeks. It also postponed the 2017 UTME scheduled to start on Saturday, May 6,2017. Under the new arrangement, the examination is to start on Saturday, May 13 to Saturday, May 20.
The board equally suspended its mock examination slated for yesterday. The postponement of the mock examination left several candidates who reported at the centres across the country stranded. Professor Ishaq Oloyede, JAMB’s Registrar, who announced the shift in Abuja, hinged the development on logistic problems. He said that instead of April 19, the deadline for the sale of forms and registration was now extended to Friday, May 5, 2017.
