Extras
In case of medicated eye glasses, the examination officials are allowed to scrutinise it and where convinced that such item may compromise the sanctity of the examination, the examination official would have to confiscate it.
Whereby an examination official (board staff or ad hoc staff) or any authorised person is found with any of these prohibited items in the examination hall, such compromising action would be treated as a deliberate act of examination sabotage and necessary sanction will be applied by the Board.
These are part of the steps being taken by the JAMB Monitoring Goup, a Civil Society Groups inaugrated by the JAMB Registrar, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, in curbing examination malpractice in Nigeria.
In 2017, Jamb blacklisted 72 centres for malpractice and will go out in 2018 to further reduce malpractice rate in its exams.
Jamb Candidates are also required to see this simple guide to Jamb CBT.
