The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the release of results for the 2025 Mock Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), which was held on Thursday, April 10.

In a statement issued on Sunday by its spokesperson, Fabian Benjamin, the board revealed that candidates can access their results by sending “MOCKRESULT” via SMS to either 55019 or 66019, using the phone number used during registration.

The board clarified that the mock examination is not compulsory, but rather designed to test “yearly innovations” while giving candidates a chance to experience the computer-based test environment before the main UTME.

According to the statement, “A total of 200,115 candidates initially expressed interest in participating; however, two candidates later withdrew, resulting in 200,113 registered candidates.

“Of those registered, 73,844 candidates were absent on the day of the examination, and 88 candidates failed the biometric verification screening.

“Consequently, 126,181 candidates successfully sat for the examination, and results for 115,735 of these candidates are now available for viewing. Additionally, 10,446 results are still being processed and will be released soon.”

JAMB acknowledged the delays encountered by some candidates during the exercise and expressed regret for the inconvenience caused.

The board explained that these hitches were linked to the introduction of new features intended to enhance the main UTME.

It called for continued support from candidates, emphasizing that the mock exam plays a vital role in refining the examination process and ensuring candidates are better equipped.

“The mock examination serves as a trial version of the UTME, allowing the Board to test new innovations while helping candidates familiarise themselves with the CBT environment.

“Over the years, this initiative has successfully achieved its objectives, addressing noted lapses and equipping candidates with valuable experience for the main examination,” the statement added.
