JAMB 2025: “My Exam Slip Says 2:00PM, But No 2PM Session Listed” — Ebube Seeks Clarification

A candidate, Ebube, has raised an important concern that many other candidates might also face during the ongoing JAMB 2025 UTME exercise.

“My JAMB exam slip indicates my time as 2:00PM, but the available exam sessions listed are 6:30AM, 9:00AM, 12:00PM, and 3:00PM. Could you please clarify which session I should attend for my exam?”

Ebube’s confusion is understandable. Seeing a time that doesn’t match the usual batch schedule can cause serious anxiety on the exam day.

What Candidates Should Know

Even though the printed exam slip says 2:00PM, JAMB organizes sessions based on available space and center arrangements. Most times, if your time doesn’t perfectly match the listed session times, you are expected to join the closest batch time.

In Ebube’s case:

• 2:00PM falls closest to the 3:00PM session.
• This means Ebube should report and prepare to take the exam with the 3:00PM batch.

It’s important to still arrive early, preferably by 1:00PM or 1:30PM, to avoid any confusion and to settle down before the session starts.

Important Reminder for All Candidates

• Always follow your printed slip time, but if it doesn’t match the session times exactly, report early and stay close to the next available batch.
• Centre officials will guide you once you arrive.
• Never miss your exam because of minor time differences — it’s better to be early and wait than to arrive late and risk missing your slot.

Final Words to Ebube and Others

Ebube, plan to attend the 3:00PM session.
Stay calm, follow the officials’ instructions, and you will still be able to write your exam successfully.

Wishing you and every other candidate the best of luck in JAMB 2025!
