The board also fixed Thursday, March 16, 2023, for the conduct of its optional mock UTME, Channels TV reported.

It fixed Saturday, April 29, 2023, for the conduct of the 2023 UTME which is expected to end on Monday, May 12, 2023.

Meanwhile, candidates will be required to pay the sum of N1000 service charge for the Computer-Based Test centres for the conduct of mock examination at the point of registration.

This, according to JAMB, is to prevent a situation where candidates would indicate their interest to sit the mock UTME leading the various centres to commit human and material resources only for them to stay away on the day of the examination.
