The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) decided not to announce the name of the top scorer in the 2024 UTME. This decision follows previous incidents where score information was misused.

“It is common knowledge that the Board has, at various fora, restated its unwillingness to publish the names of its best-performing candidates, as it considers its UTME as only a ranking examination on account of the other parameters that would constitute what would later be considered the minimum admissible score for candidates seeking admission to tertiary institutions,” Oloyede said.

 

 

JAMB officials commended the students for their exceptional performance on this year’s challenging UTME. Their scores reflect the high standards the exam aims to maintain.

Top scorers hail from across Nigeria, showcasing the nation’s diverse talent pool. Students from Ondo, Oyo, Edo, and Akwa Ibom States achieved outstanding results.
