JAMB (fully pronounced as the Joint Admissions and Matriculations Board) is a board which oversees the organization and conduct of the examination for tertiary-level admissions in Nigeria. Specifically, the examination is described as the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination and is conducted for Nigerian aspirants of universities, polytechnics or colleges of education.

JAMB (CBT) Examination

Precisely regarded as Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), JAMB’s CBT examination is a yearly exercise organized by JAMB in order to evaluate candidates’ eligibility for tertiary education. It is worthy of note that the examination records no less than 1 million candidates every year. For the current year (2020), JAMB registered more than 2 million applicants for the said examination.

The Release of JAMB Results

JAMB results refer to an aggregate of candidates’ performances at any given CBT examination. It is notable that JAMB often releases candidates’ results few hours after their exams.

JAMB Exam Centres

JAMB exam centres are the locations (widely spread across Nigeria’s 36 states) specialized for the conduct of JAMB’s examinations. Notably, such locations are generously equipped with the needed facilities for the smooth conduct of JAMB’s CBT exams.

How to Check 2021 JAMB Result.

This is the first method you can use in checking your JAMB result for 2021. All candidates can now send RESULT, via SMS to 55019 using the same phone number that was used for their UTME registration. (Note that you need at least, a minimum of N50 credit balance before you’ll receive your result). The result will be sent as a reply after you’ve been charged N50.

The following are the responses candidates should expect:

If a candidate sends “result” to “55019” via a phone number that was not used for JAMB 2020 registration, a message will be sent similar to this: “This phone number was not used for registration.”
A candidate who used the phone number for registration and followed the above guide will receive the message: “Dear Mr/Miss X, your result is as follows: (and the four subjects you choose with your performance will be provided).”
If a result is withheld, a message reading “Result Withheld” will be sent to the candidate.
If a candidate’s result is still be processed or undergoing possible malpractice verification, the message to the person will be: “Result withheld pending the upload of clarifications/document required from you.”
If a candidate was absent, s/he would get “CANDIDATE ABSENT” as a reply.
Candidates who sat for the examination but didn’t get verified by biometric will get “ABSENT WITH REGISTRATION NUMBER also CANCELLED” as a reply.
If a candidate who gained unauthorized access to the examination hall, they will receive an “Invalid Entrance into the Exam Hall” when trying to check JAMB result with SMS.

Is It Possible To Upgrade My UTME Result?

The answer is NO!. I would love to emphasize on this issue, because thousands out of desperation and bid to impress, have fallen victims to these cheap scams. Do not pay anyone to upgrade your result for you, because it is impossible and they have no access to the JAMB center.

Speaking on this issue, the JAMB registrar, Professor Ishaq has disclosed that there is punishment for candidates who are trying to upgrade their results. Even after you’ve been admitted or graduated, if you upgraded your result, your certificate will be void.

JAMB Aggregate Score.

The JAMB policy discloses that all candidates must write a total of 4 subjects which tallies with their selected course. Each subject has a total of 50 marks.

This means that the four (4) subjects marks, when calculated, 50 × 4 = 400. Therefore, the JAMB aggregate score is a total of 400 marks. It is impossible for a candidate to score above 400.

Candidates with a high JAMB score stand a higher chance of getting admitted into their school of choice/courses.
