The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) is responsible for organizing and conducting the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) in Nigeria. The UTME is a computer-based test designed to assess the readiness of candidates to pursue tertiary education in Nigeria. One of the most important aspects of the UTME is checking the result. In this article, we will discuss whether candidates can check their JAMB result with their registration number.
Checking JAMB Result
Candidates can check their JAMB result using their registration number. The JAMB result is usually released a few days after the exam, and candidates can check their result by following the steps below:
Step 1: Visit the JAMB result checking portal at www.jamb.org.ng
Step 2: Click on the “Check UTME Results” button.
Step 3: Enter your JAMB registration number and click on “Check My Result”.
Step 4: Your JAMB result will be displayed on the screen.
Candidates can also check their JAMB result using their profile code. The profile code is a unique code assigned to each candidate during the UTME registration process. Candidates can check their result using the following steps:
Step 1: Send an SMS with the word “RESULT” followed by your “JAMB Registration Number” to 55019.
Step 2: You will receive an SMS with your JAMB result.
Note: Candidates are advised to check their result only on the official JAMB result checking portal or by sending an SMS to the designated code. Checking the result on any other website may lead to the loss of personal information or result tampering.
Importance of Checking JAMB Result
Checking the JAMB result is important because it determines a candidate’s eligibility for admission into any tertiary institution in Nigeria. The JAMB result shows the candidate’s overall score in the exam and the scores in each of the four subjects. The result is used by tertiary institutions to determine the eligibility of candidates for admission into their institution and the course of their choice.
Candidates who perform well in the JAMB exam have a better chance of gaining admission into their desired institution and course. Candidates who do not perform well may need to rewrite the exam or choose a different course or institution.
