The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has certified 747 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres for the 2024 UTME exercise scheduled to begin on Monday.
The board made this known in a bulletin issued in Abuja by its spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin.
The board had shortlisted 907 CBT centres for accreditation, but after revalidation and integrity tests, it could only certify 747 centres for the 2024 UTME exercise.
The reporter, who monitored registration at various CBT centres in the FCT and its environs, revealed that candidates were seen in their number at the various centres.
Some candidates who shared their experiences said the registration was seamless, while others said otherwise.
At the Future Gate CBT centre in One-Man Village, a candidate, Chinaza Onuegbu, who expressed worry over his inability to register, said he was directed to register in another centre without a reason.
Mr Onuegbu, however, said that on another thought, he went back to request why he won’t be allowed to register but was told to come back the next day with his JAMB profile code, which he has not gotten.
At the Global Learning Institute, opposite the Federal Ministry of Finance, a candidate, Pelumi Rotimi, said the registration was seamless, and she could register within a few minutes.
Candidates must possess their National Identification Number (NIN), O’level results, choice of institution and course, biometric verification and JAMB registration fee for the 2024 UTME registration.
