JAMB 2025: Candidate Worried After Portal Still Shows 2020 Profile Despite Receiving 2025 Exam Slip — Jimoh Fauziyat Shares Her Experience

A JAMB 2025 candidate, Jimoh Fauziyat, has shared her worry after noticing that her JAMB portal still shows her old 2020 profile even though she has successfully completed her 2025 registration and received her 2025 exam slip.

“Good morning sir/ma, please, my JAMB portal is still showing 2020 as exam year instead of 2025 (still showing the old profile). I used the same email address of 2020 for 2025, I received my JAMB registration slip for 2025 on the email, and I was able to check my exam reprint slip through the JAMB link, but my JAMB portal is still not updated to this year profile,” she explained.

Despite logging in on another device and even visiting a registered CBT center, the issue still remained, and the center confirmed that it was from JAMB’s end, not from her side.

Should Jimoh Fauziyat Be Worried?

No, she should not panic.
Here’s why:

• The most important thing for the exam is the correct 2025 exam slip, which she already has.
• As long as her registration number, exam center, exam time, and exam date on her 2025 slip are correct, she will be allowed to write the exam.
• JAMB sometimes delays updating the candidate’s portal profiles for new exam years — this has happened in previous years too.

What matters for now is having:

• The correct 2025 exam slip printed.
• Proper identification on exam day (if required).
• Confidence that she is properly registered.

Why Is Her Portal Still Showing 2020 Details?

• Old email reuse: Since she used her 2020 email address again for 2025, the portal may be temporarily pulling old data.
• Platform updates: Sometimes, JAMB delays activating full access to the new year’s profile for candidates until after exams or results are released.

CBT centers confirming that it’s a JAMB-side issue also proves she is not alone, and it is nothing she can personally fix right now.

What Jimoh Fauziyat Should Focus On

• Prepare for the exam with full focus.
• Go to the exam center early with the printed 2025 exam slip.
• Keep checking the JAMB portal after the exam for updates — especially when it’s time to check results.

Final Words

Jimoh, you have done everything right by contacting JAMB and visiting a CBT center.
Since your 2025 slip is correct, there is no cause for alarm.
Focus on your exam on Friday — your 2025 registration is valid, and you will be allowed to sit for your UTME without any issue.

Wishing you the very best in your exam! Stay confident and calm — you are fully ready.
