JAMB releases 2026 mock UTME results, delists over 20 CBT centres

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has released the results of the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) mock test conducted on Saturday, March 28.

In a statement signed by Fabian Benjamin, the board said candidates can check their results by sending “MOCKRESULT” via SMS to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used during registration.

JAMB disclosed that a total of 224,597 candidates registered for the mock examination, out of which 152,586 candidates successfully sat for the test across 989 computer-based test (CBT) centres nationwide.

The board also announced that more than 20 CBT centres have been delisted following the exercise due to technical challenges experienced during the mock examination.

It said the affected centres were found to have technical inadequacies that compromised the smooth conduct of the test.

JAMB warned candidates to beware of fraudulent individuals or groups, especially on WhatsApp, claiming to assist in inflating examination scores.

The board described such claims as false and criminal, adding that any candidate found engaging in such activities would have their registration cancelled.

It further noted that where such infractions are discovered after the examination, results may be withheld or withdrawn.

JAMB added that the main UTME is scheduled to commence on April 16, 2026.
