“We are happy to announce to the public that the board has
concluded arrangement for the conduct of the mock UTME,
slated for Monday, February 26
“This is irrespective of the ongoing strike embarked upon by
members of non-academic unions of federal universities
nation wide.
“Candidates will soon be informed on when to print
notifications for the examination and in addition,
notifications will be sent through e-mails and text
messages on the schedules of their examination,” Benjamin
said.
He explained that the examination was expected to be hitch
free because the board had successfully reduced
incidences of malfunctioning of computers by electronically
integrating the systems to see their functionality and
effectiveness through link tests.

“What this means is that, at the end if the exercise,
whatever system that is not seen will not be used for the
mock examination.
“The 2018 exercise sold a total of 1, 966,918 candidate
generating profiles.
“In previous examinations this number of candidates would
have paid for the forms but through our efficient and
effective system of ensuring that candidates do not waste
resources, we decided to introduce the profile generating
regime.
“By this method, candidates will first have to generate
personal profiles before proceeding to obtain pins, in
between which they are open to deciding whether to go
ahead to pay for the registration documents or otherwise,”
Benjamin explained.
The main UTME is expected to hold nationwide from March
9 to March 17
