JAMB
Specifies Requirement Inside Examination Hall.
Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board has urged
candidates sitting for the 2024 Mock-UTME scheduled to hold on March 7, to come
into the examination hall with ordinary HP pencil for numerical analysis if
they so desire.
This clarification became necessary following the series
of enquiries from candidates and the general public regarding whether HP
pencils are permitted in the examination hall as a writing material.
This is contained in a statement made available to
newsmen by the Board’s Public Communication Advisor, Dr. Fabian Benjamin in Abuja
on Wednesday.
The Board has, however, Okayed the use of ordinary HP
pencil during the upcoming Mock-UTME and the main examination scheduled to
commence on Friday, April 19.
Jamb further urged candidates to note that they are to
come with only one pencil to their respective examination centers as specified
while ensuring that they are not in possession of any other prohibited items.
