Candidates sitting for the 2015 UTME have been urged to dispel their fears regarding the Computer Based Test.
This advice was coming JAMB's Head of Public Relations, Mr Fabian Benjamin.
According
to him, the candidates should embrace CBT as it would help restore
glory to the country's education system as it will help curb Examination
Malpractice.
“And once exam malpractice is not there our
education will be on a sound footing; as far as CBT is concerned, I
don't think we had any challenge last year.
“The only challenge
was the issue of the phobia by Nigerians over the CBT, but we have been
able to overcome that and they are beginning to see that this is not as
complex as they thought.
“We are getting very impressive
responses from the candidates, from parents and from other stakeholders;
so by the grace of God this exam is going to be a huge success.
“We
are working with security agencies and they have been giving us
assurances; moreover, our examination is after the elections.
“We
believe that before we start, the elections would have come and gone.
The CBT examination is not a one-day examination; it is beginning on
March 4th, and it will stretch for two weeks.” He stated.
