All set for UTME next year, says JAMB Registrar – The Nation

July 13, 2009 by tim 

THE syllabi, brochures and other modalities needed for the take-off of the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) next year are already being put in place, says JAMB Registrar, Prof Dibu Ojerinde.

Speaking in Lagos at the weekend after monitoring the Monotechnics/Polytechnics and Colleges of Education (MPCE) Matriculation Examination with the Minister of Education, Dr. Sam Egwu, Ojerinde said the board was adjusting the syllabi so that candidates can meet the requirements of the various institutions in applying for similar courses.

“The Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) is going to start next year. Today (Saturday) brings about an end to the MPCE and UME, by the grace of God. What we want to do is combine the two examinations. And that means if you are going to the polytechnic, college of education or university, you take the same examination. But we want to make sure that the examination is flexible. You want to study Mechanical Engineering in the university, you can also study Mechanical Engineering in the polytechnic.So, it means you have to take Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics,” he said.
