The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has officially released the 2025 JAMB UTME result, revealing that over 1.5 million candidates scored below 200 out of the 1,955,069 who sat for the examination.
According to the data released by JAMB on Monday, only 420,415 candidates scored above 200 in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). This means about 75% of candidates scored below 200, and less than 1% achieved scores above 300.
The board also disclosed that 40,247 underage candidates were granted permission to sit for the exam due to their exceptional academic abilities. However, only 467 candidates (1.16%) among them scored high enough to meet JAMB’s benchmark for “exceptional ability,” with further assessments pending.
The 2025 UTME commenced on Thursday, April 24, across approved centers nationwide.
