The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially released the results of the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
Out of the 1,955,069 candidates who sat for this year’s exam, over 1.5 million scored below 200, according to data published by JAMB on Monday. Only 420,415 candidates were able to score above 200, indicating that about 75 percent of test-takers fell short of that mark. Additionally, fewer than one percent of all candidates scored above 300.
In the same release, JAMB revealed that 40,247 underage candidates were allowed to participate to showcase their academic potential. However, just 467 of them (1.16%) met the benchmark for “exceptional ability,” and they will still undergo further assessment in three additional stages.
This year’s UTME began on Thursday, April 24, and JAMB has made it easy for candidates to check their results using two methods—via the official portal and by SMS.
