The results that surfaced online revealed that the highest score so far is 362.
Recall that the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) said it would not release the names of the top scorers in the just-concluded 2024 UTME.
Prof. Ishaq Oloyede, the JAMB registrar, disclosed this at a press briefing in the Bwari area of Abuja on Monday, April 29. He explained that the board considered the UTME exercise the only ranking examination in the country.
The examination body also said that only 0.5 % of candidates scored 300 and above, and some brilliant students made it to this small group.
Interestingly, 30 students from a Catholic school also had outstanding UTME results.
