JAMB Releases 2025 UTME Resit Results – The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially released the results of the 2025 UTME resit held for candidates affected by technical issues during the main examination.
According to JAMB, the resit was conducted on Thursday, 16th May 2025, for over 300,000 candidates whose centres experienced significant glitches that impacted their performance during the first round of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).
These candidates, spread across 157 affected centres nationwide, were invited to reprint their examination slips and retake the test after JAMB confirmed the widespread challenges at their original centres.
