How to Check JAMB Result – 2019/2020
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released its results for candidates that wrote the 2019/2020 JAMB UTME exams.
Mr Is-haq Oloyede, JAMB registrar disclosed that the board withheld 34,120 candidates for violation of JAMB’s exam policy. He also added that 15,145 results were still undergoing scrutinization and may be released if all things go well.
In previous years, JAMB UTME candidates could check their results via a link provided by JAMB. That has changed as JAMB results can only be checked through an SMS message.
Mr Oloyede stated that the new way for checking result is to prevent candidates from being exploited by café/business centre operators.
