The central question for candidates is: how can they check their JAMB mock result for 2026? The answer is straightforward: candidates can check their results by sending ‘MOCKRESULT’ via SMS to either 55019 or 66019.
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) released the results of the 2026 Mock UTME on April 1, 2026. This mock examination took place on March 28, 2026, and was designed to prepare candidates for the main Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), which is scheduled to begin on April 16, 2026.
In total, 224,597 candidates registered for the mock examination, with 152,586 actually participating. The examination was conducted across 989 Computer-Based Test (CBT) centres. However, 20 CBT centres were delisted due to technical challenges experienced during the examination.
JAMB has issued warnings against fraudulent claims of score inflation, emphasizing that candidates found engaging in such activities risk cancellation of registration or withdrawal of results. According to Fabian Benjamin, a spokesperson for JAMB, “Such claims are false and criminal.”
As candidates await their results, it is crucial to follow the official channels for checking results to avoid misinformation. The upcoming main UTME will be a significant event for the candidates, and preparation is key.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any further announcements from JAMB about the mock results or the main examination. Candidates are encouraged to stay informed through official JAMB communications.
