JAMB SETS NEW GUIDELINES FOR UTME.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board said it had come out with new guidelines to ensure seamless conduct of future operational processes, including the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.
It added that the modifications included new ways to further strengthen the conduct of the UTME accreditation centres, registration of candidates, examination process, results management and general administration.
“Hence, no new Computer-Based Test centre would be accredited without meeting the new requirements.
“To this end, new CBT centres must use laptop computer systems as clients, zero thin-dients or Remote Desktop Protocol would no longer be accepted.”
The communiqué, JAMB added, further reiterated that no CBT centre must install any clients with less than 2 gigabyte (2GB) RAM.
“It is now mandatory that Autobot system should be used for the accreditation of CBT centres; there should be three Autobot tests: Pre-accreditation during Mock – UTME and the dummy examination.”
