It is usually called JAMB by most students, but the real name for the exam is Universal Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). It is an exam conducted by the Federal government for all the prospective students of various higher institution of learning in Nigeria after having their complete O’level results.

The exam is always in two phases, Use of English and other three relevant subjects i.e Use of English is compulsory for all candidates. The other three relevant subjects to register in JAMB depends on the courses you want to study in the university, Polytechnic and colleges of education.

What Is Marking Scheme?

The simple definition for marking scheme is “A system for awarding points for correct answers or for proficiency in an examination or competition”.

Therefore, JAMB Marking scheme means, a system used by JAMB to award marks or points for correct answers in UTME.

Then, JAMB CBT Marking scheme can be said to mean a system employ by JAMB to  allocate point for students in exam written through computer base.

Nature of JAMB Exam and the Mark Allocated

You are expected to register four subject including English Language. Let assume you are a science student who want to register JAMB with the following JAMB subject combinations. See the expected numbers of questions on each and marks.

  1. English Language  60questions    100marks
  2. Mathematics         40questions     100marks
  3. Physics                 40 questions     100marks
  4. Chemistry             40questions      100marks

Above are the expected questions you are to answer in UTME CBT exam. The nature of the exam is that, English questions comes first and others follows, depending on the arrangements.

The total numbers of questions to answer in UTME is 180 while the total marks is 400. For English language, each question you got right get you 1.66marks. Then if you answered 30 correctly, you get 50marks which is half of the 100marks.

While in other three subjects, any question you got right gives you 2.5marks. Therefore, if you got 20question correctly in Physics, you already scored 50marks… and on like that.

Allocated numbers of Time (hours) To Answer JAMB CBT Questions is two(2) hours. Though, we’ve received a lot of complain from candidates who claimed they were not given up to that in some JAMB CBT centers for their exams.

JAMB Negative Marking

This another thing many applicants want to know about.  Do JAMB do negative marking or they don’t?

Negative marking simply means that,  if you fail or wrongly answered a question, it will automatically cancel one right answer.

You can see that this will not be nice… so believe me, JAMB DO NOT USE NEGATIVE MARKING SYSTEM. You are awarded what you scored without cheating. Simple.

Can I Score 400 in JAMB UTME CBT?

Even though the total score is 400, candidates may find it difficult to score 400/400 in UTME. But you can score above 350 in JAMB which still a rare excellent result.

All the best
