This was reported before in our earlier post Here. But it has come to be confirmed.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has introduced three options for the 2013 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) for candidates. Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, Registrar of JAMB, made the announcement, on Wednesday, when the House of Representatives Committee on Education visited him on an oversight function.
Ojerinde listed the options as Paper and Pencil Testing (PPT), Dibu Based Test (DBT), where questions would be presented on computers and answers would be on paper and Computer Based Testing (CBT) where both questions and answers would be done on computer.
Ojerinde stated that candidates were at liberty to choose one of the three options in the 2013 UTME.
The registrar said that the most advantageous part of the CBT was that candidates would get their scores few minutes after writing the examination on their GSM cell phones.
``The internet age has come to stay with us hence as actors in the new age, you cannot afford to stay on the fence, you must be prepared to join the train or else you are left behind,'' Dibu said.
He urged candidates to study hard for the 2013 UTME, adding that consistent hard work was the panacea to success in any examination.
Earlier, Rose Oko, the Chairman of the House Committee on Education, said that the members were on a visit to the board because of the importance of education to the society.
``The examination process is very key and strategic in education as well as the sanctity of the examination,'' she stressed.
Oko commended the board for its quick release of the 2012 UTME results and urged it to sustain the tempo. NAN
