Following last year’s UTME, JAMB released the result at the end of the exercise. Before, It was very usual for JAMB to release results 48 hours (2 days) after candidates had written the exam. One thing I am sure of is that JAMB will disclose when the results will be released.
If this year follows the same pattern as last year, in my opinion, the result will be released after the exercise. This is my opinion and should not be mistaken for the official announcement. I think in that direction because your score will be verified to ensure no examination malpractice occurs.
Said differently, the exam operation requires that after you have finished your CBT and clicked on submit, your graded score will be sent to JAMB database for further processing. It is at this point that your result gets delayed a bit. Normally, you should see your JAMB result immediately, but this is not so because the result has to be processed and checked for any irregularities or malpractice.
So, after the board has done the necessary confirmation and processes, the result will be made available for candidates to see as soon as possible. The implication is that you shouldn’t panic, as your score will be out when the process is completed. In addition, after your result is out, you can go ahead to check your JAMB result.
In conclusion, once JAMB has made the announcement, you can proceed to access your result provided you didn’t engage in any malpractice or your JAMB centre hasn’t be flagged for irregularities.
