Vice Chancellor of the University of Agriculture Abeokuta, UNAAB, Olusola Oyewole, during a press conference with regard to the 21st and 22nd convocation ceremonies of the institution which will come up on the 20 and 21st June 2014 revealed that the institution has only 3000 available spaces for the 2014/2015 admission.

According to him, out of the over 30,000 candidates that applied through JAMB to study in the institution only 15,000 scored 180 and above and are therefore eligible to go through the screening exercise for admission in the 2014/2015 academic session.

These 15,000 candidates will be competing for the 3000 available admission spaces in the institution.

He however revealed that that only the Senate of the institution would decide what criteria to use in selecting 3000 candidates out of the 15,000.

According to him,the cut -off mark for the institution may turn out to be 200 in order to reduce the number of candidates vying for the limited spaces to 6000.

“I WAS AFRAID WHEN I SAT IN FRONT OF THE COMPUTER BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE THE EXPERIENCE.NOW, THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED IT, IS IT EASY AND STRAIGHT FORWARD”…SAYS JAMB CBT CANDIDATE

…CBT exam room…

The JAMB CBT examination that commenced last Saturday has so far recorded success.

In one of the centres in Lagos it was gathered that biometric verification commenced as early as 7.am and took less than a minute to screen a candidate.

One of the officials who commented on the success of the exam said unlike last year they had problems like interruption of power supply and system failure, the challenges was adequately addressed this year.

The JAMB Assistant Director, Mrs Ebere Okeke, said after the exams on Saturday that the CBT process was as simple as using a mobile telephone and described the CBT mode as the solution to examination malpractices for JAMB.

A candidate who commented said, the examination was smooth and successful as the system functioned accurately.

Another candidate said the process was faster than other mode of examination.

“I was afraid when I sat in front of the computer because I do not have the experience.

“Now, that I have experienced it, is it easy and straight forward, all I do is read the question, click my answer and go to the next page,” she said.

Just as expected, candidates were automatically logged out by the system at the expiration of their time.

With this development and in light of JAMB going full blown CBT by 2015, obviously this mode of examination has come to stay.
