As a student who wants to sit for the upcoming JAMB 2016 UTME, you are required to note the below experiences. Please, this is a very vital information to all the students, who are writing on the 10th of March, 2016!
1. TIME: The timing for the 2016 CBT exams has changed. The new time is 2hrs 45Mins. The time in previous exams used to be 3hrs 30mins.
2. CALCULATOR: For the 2016 JAMB, you will be using what is called an "ON-SCREEN Calculator". You will no longer be using physical, hard calculator.
If you want to practice how to use an "ON-SCREEN Calculator" on a computer system. Open the calculator from your computer, follow these steps;
i. Click on the start menu at the bottom left of your screen.
ii. Find and Click on "All Programs".
iii. Find and Click on "Accessories"
iv. Then Find and Click on "Calculator".
v. It should be very easy to use.
3. Rough Sheet: Some candidates have complained they were not given rough sheet, while others say they were given. Either way, you have to go prepared. We suggest, you make 2 extra photo copy of your Exam Slip. I believe you will be allowed to take this into the hall and you can use that as a back-up.
4. Log-Out Issues: Some candidates complained that sometimes, the system just logs them out of the exam. Don't Panic! Just simply log in again by using your JAMB Registration Number or call the attention of an invigilator.
5. CALCULATOR DECIMAL: So we realized some more students complained that they could not find (dot) (Point) (Decimal) (.) on the calculator, for them to click. This means they could not solve questions like 0.00234 x 0.987. The solution to this is to use the (dot) (Point) (Decimal) (.) on the keyboard. This means you click on the number, then "TYPE" the dot.
Feel free to share any worries you have at this time, so we can try to resolve them before your exam day.
