JAMB Registration Pin 

This is the JAMB registration pin known as the JAMB e-pin. It is a secret pin that is given to the JAMB candidates after making payment for their JAMB.

If after your payment, you lost your e-pin, you can retrieve it by sending a message to JAMB through the following methods;

  • Direct entry students should send DEPIN to 55019 or 66019.
  • While UTME candidates are to send a message to JAMB thus UTMEPIN to 55019 or 66019.
  • After you have successfully sent the message, your e-pin will be sent to your number.

Ordinary Level Result

As the pupils of the primary school write their final examination known as the Primary School Leaving Certificate, so also do students of the Senior Secondary Students need to write SSCE, which is popularly known as Ordinary  level examinations (level) signifies the end of students' secondary education,

However, every candidate who wants to register for JAMB must have registered and sit for their O’Level exam, which is one of the things that will be demanded from the candidate at the CBT center during registration. 

Advance Level Result

First of all, the term A’Level means Advance Level results. It is a result that is obtained after one has finished his/her secondary school. In other words, it means a post-secondary certificate, which the result is used to measure the success of your course or subject in an area of study.

Some institutions prepare you for Advance advanced-level certificate after you have finished your secondary education. It helps to prepare candidates for University admission.

Example of Advanced Level Results

Below are examples of the advanced-level results that you need to go to the CBT center with

  • Interim Joint Matriculation Board (IJMB)
  • Joint University Preliminary Examination Board (JUPEB)
  • National Business and Technical Examination Board (NABTEB)
  • General Certificate Examination (GCE)
  • University Advance Basic Science (UABS)
  • The University of Cambridge Advanced Level 

Bio-data 

When you are going to the JAMB CBT center, you need to go there with your bio-data, you need to be able to fill out the form that will be given to you.

Biodata can also be referred to as biographical data in full. This refers to information about a person's personal and professional background. Examples of information that is referred to as bio-data are a person's name, age, address, education, work experience, gender, etc.

Choice of Institution

All the candidates who register for JAMB, during their registration, must choose their institution. It is left for the candidate to decide which University, that he/she wants to study. So before you go to the CBT center, you should ensure that you are going there with the name of the institution that you want to attend.

Propose Choice of Course

Choosing the course that you want to study is very important too. It is one of the things that candidates must have decided on ever since before now. Going to the CBT center is just for you to tell them which course you want to study. It is not at the CBT center that you will begin to grapple with which course you should study.

Subject Combination

At the CBT center, you also need to go there with the right JAMB subject combination, depending on the course that the candidate has chosen to study. The subject combination for JAMB candidates is not the same, they are chosen on a course basis. You can only choose four subjects that are relevant to your area of study, for example, English Language, Literature in English, Government, and Christian Religious Studies for a candidate that wants to study Law at the University.

Conclusion

Guys, you have to ensure that you gather all the information and all the items mentioned in this post and keep them intact as you are preparing to go to the CN]BT center for your JAMB registration, that will help you to get out of the stress and trouble that the lack of these things would have caused you.
