Following the release of the JAMB 2014 Results, lamentations and cries have been coming from candidates whose results have been seized for one reason or the other. Some of the reasons why these results have been held back are as follows;
- No “Biometric Verification”
- No Result Yet
- You have exceeded your allowable five times access
- You were involved in wide spread cheating
- You were involved in using electronic devices
- Due to lateness to the exam hall
We will now attempt to tackle these issues one after the other, using information provided to us from various sources including JAMB officers.
No Biometric Verification
These are candidates who have been accused of not taking proper biometric (Thumb Print) verification either during registration or during accreditation. While some candidates may have been involved in impersonation (invalid thumb print) others were involved in double registration using different finger prints.
According to our sources in JAMB, these results are still under investigation. From what SchoolGist gathered, majority of results under this category will be released as it was clearly not the fault of the candidates.
Our sources disclosed that within the next 2 weeks, all result in this category will be sorted and released. A very small fraction however, will actually be held back if traces of impersonation or double registration is detected on an invalid thumb print. Those that will be appropriately screened for impersonation are those where the thumb printing exercise was successfully carried out.
Our advise to candidates in this category is to exercise some patience. If indeed any of the reasons stated above was not traced to your information, your result will definitely be released within 2 weeks, while some may begin seeing their results by the end of this week so check back by weekend. Please pray hard that your result will not be held back due to human error.
No Result Yet
Those in this category are different from those of biometric verification. While majority of those in biometric problem will have their results released, majority of those in this category were held back due to reports of cheating.
In this situation, only prayer is the key to releasing the result. Only a handful of the results in this category will be released. If you are in this category, you are advised to also check back at least every weekend and mid-week (Wednesdays) starting from 28th April.
You have exceeded your allowable five times access
If you're in this category, you have no problem at all. The only issue is that you probably posted your JAMB registration number on a public platform, website or on facebook and over 5 users of the website(s) have help you check your result.
There are 2 options available;
1. You can either visit all the platforms or facebook where you published your reg. number to help you check and see if there's a reply to your request.
2. You can get your original JAMB result slip once and for all.
Our advise for you however, is to take "Option 2" and get your original JAMB result slip. This is because whether or not you like it, you will still need to get your original JAMB result slip as this is the only document that is accepted when you go for Post-UTME or Admission Screening because it has your registration passport on it. All JAMB candidates will require this document for Post-UTME. If you want to get it right into your e-mail address, click here to request for yours
You were involved in wide spread cheating / using electronic devices / Copying / Absent / Lateness etc.
If you see this inscription while checking your result, just forget about the 2014 JAMB. It's either you start preparing for 2015 JAMB or seek other options such as pre-degree, diploma or IJMB Programmes.
So whatever category you find yourself in, we hope we've been able to address your issues.
