Abuja, Nigeria - The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of the 2025 Mock Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) conducted nationwide on Thursday, April 10, 2025.
According to a statement released on Sunday by JAMB spokesperson, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, candidates can now access their results by sending "MOCKRESULT" via SMS to either 55019 or 66019, using the phone number they registered with for the exam.
JAMB stated that the optional mock examination was designed to test the board’s annual innovations and provide candidates with an opportunity to experience the Computer-Based Test (CBT) environment.
Out of the 200,115 candidates who initially registered for the mock examination, two withdrew, bringing the final number of registered candidates to 200,113. However, 73,844 candidates were absent on the examination day, and 88 were disqualified due to biometric verification issues. This left 126,181 candidates who successfully sat for the test.
As of now, the results for 115,735 candidates have been released, with the remaining 10,446 results still being processed and expected to be available soon.
JAMB acknowledged the delays experienced by some candidates during the examination and regrets any inconvenience caused. The board explained that these challenges were anticipated due to the new features implemented to enhance the overall conduct of the main UTME.
JAMB appreciates the support of candidates and parents in facilitating a smoother process, adding that the mock examination serves as a trial version of the UTME, allowing the board to test new innovations while helping candidates familiarize themselves with the CBT environment. The board urged all candidates to continue making the necessary sacrifices to ensure a better examination experience that effectively serves their interests.
