Hello am sure some ppl hope is not yet broken but so many ppl hope r broke already by various higher institution. We r still expecting some list in some sch but it better we start planning for 2013/2014 utme and admission from now on to easy things for each other. It is for sure so many ppl will be joining the about to graduate secondary school student by next year and various examination bodies will soon start selling forms and lot of us will be obtaining the forms but before we fill that form let us have all the necessary information we need which will increase our chances in next year admission seeking exercise. We can get such information here don't just be shy to ask that question that has been on ur mind all along it might be the edge u need.

Do you know that a total of six hundred and twenty three thousand and sixty nine(623,069) applicants out of the 1.5million who applied for the 2012 JAMB UTME are currently seeking admission from only 11 Universities, with a total carrying capacity, not exceeding 70,000 persons.

This means that over 554,000 persons would not be admitted, and would also purchase the next JAMB UTME form, increasing the number of applicants?

To beat this number to ur admission u need to start with having the right grade in ur o levels (waec neco nabteb a level gce etc) n have the right combination

JAMB has announced that candidates seating for
UTME 2013 will have 3 testing options. The first is
Computer Based Testing (CBT), which will allow
candidates write UTME using a computer and know
their result almost immediately. The second is the
computer-paper testing will allow candidates view
questions on computer but answer on paper.
The final option is the good old pencil and paper.
UTME candidates are expected to choose one of the
options. According to JAMB, by 2015 only computer
based testing will be available to UTME candidates.

DO you Know that:
The Nnamdi Azikiwe University(UNIZIK) with 82,148 admission seeking applicants in 2012, can only admit 4,373 at the end of the day?

Over 77,000 persons must have wasted their parents money, applying for admission at the University.

i love this thread really learned a thing or two!

Do You Know That, 55% of admissions into all Universities in Nigeria, is based on the candidates state of origin, with only 45% available on merit?

Be wise, 2012 application begins soon!!

Explaining JAMB’s e-testing for 2013 UTME

As the Federal Government, last week, formally launched Computer-Based Test for the 2013 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, Clement Idoko writes on the initiative. 

As part of the ongoing reforms in the education sector, the Minister of Education, Professor Ruqayyatu Ahmed Rufa’i, formally launched Computer-Based Test to be employed by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) in the conduct of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) with effect from 2013.   

The first of its kind in the country, there however, are fears of the feasibility of the concept, given the low level of knowledge in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Nigeria. The fears being expressed by both stakeholders in the education sector and some would-be UTME candidates are further heightened by the inadequacy of infrastructure to support the scheme.  

Computer-Based Test is administration of an examination using a computer. When fully implemented, it will come to replace the Paper-Pencil Test (PPT) used by JAMB in the conduct of the UTME.

However, Professor Rufai, and the Registrar, Chief Executive of JAMB, Professor ’Dibu Ojerinde, dispelled whatever fears that may be entertained by the people, as due diligence, according to them had been taken in the development of the initiative.

One unique feature of the e-exam, as announced by Professor Ojerinde, is that the 2013 UTME will be staggered and will hold for 17 days, obviously because of inadequate computers for the examination to hold in a day, simultaneously across the nation and in some foreign countries, as it used to be. He also disclosed that every candidate will get his or her score instantly as the examination is concluded, while the final results would be released by the board later.  

The flag-off, according to the JAMB registrar marks the beginning of intensive campaign of CBT, for Nigerians to get acquainted with the scheme before the examination is held next year. Car stickers, flyers and posters have been produced by JAMB for distribution to the public and candidates during registration. The board said it will also employ radio, television jingles and newspaper advertisement to properly educate people on the scheme. 

The minister, while unveiling the scheme in Abuja, announced gradual phasing out of the paper-pencil test. According to her, candidates will be presented with three options in the UTME from 2013 to 2015 when the Computer-Based Test (CBT) will be fully implemented. 

She explained that apart from the CBT, candidates have two other options, namely; the traditional Paper- Pencil Test and Dual Mode involving the use of Computer and Paper-Based Test. 

In the case of CBT, an individual will be electronically tested. In other words, you see the questions on the screen and you answer on the screen, while in the case of Computer and Paper, candidates could see questions on display on computer and use the paper and pencil to answer. 

Rufa’i, who was exhilarated at the initiative, described the e-testing as a unique and very transformative effort of the Federal Ministry of Education, through JAMB. She said: “Under the present administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, we are targeting the transformation of the entire education sector between now and 2015. Part of the effort is to look at the issue of quality of education and then to also look at the issue of access.” 

She noted that part of the issue of quality was to ensure that “we do our testing and assessment properly,” adding that the concept would help address some of the challenges faced in the conduct of examination in the country. 

According to her, the CBT has two major advantages. “First, we are moving in terms of advancing the nation technologically, like is obtainable elsewhere in the nations of the world. And of course, the major advantage is to reduce or completely eliminate the issue of examination malpractices.”
