Ahead of the conduct of the 2023 UTME, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has said no candidate would be allowed to login to the examination one hour into the stipulated examination start time. This, according to the Board, is meant as a corrollary to its earlier directive that no candidate would be allowed to login or enter the examination hall one hour into the examination start time.
This policy direction was part of takeaways at a virtual training organised for Proctors by the Board on Saturday, 4th March, 2023.
The Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, in his address to the participants, pointed out that only candidates who have been biometrically verified successfully would be able to login for the examination.
Prof. Oloyede stated that the Board has put in place features aimed at further simplifying its examination delivery with the use of nine (9) keys, in lieu of the mouse, in addition to explicit instructions to candidates.
He charged candidates to ensure that they carefully read and follow all the instructions as stated on the screen before, during and after the examination and should refrain from doing anything contrary to the rules guiding the conduct of the examination.
The Registrar also reiterated the ban on prohibited items adding that the Board would sanction any candidate found culpable. According to him, the list of prohibited items include the following: mobile phones, pens/biros, ear pods/ear piece, smart button, wallet/purse, necklaces, rings, bangles, keyholders, calculators, Bluetooth devices, cameras, microphones, recorders, contact lenses, books, spyglasses, smartwatches, flash drives, among others.
