As we gear up for the 2020 JAMB CBT exam, candidates are to note that there are items they are not allowed to bring to the exam hall. According to JAMB, this is to ensure that the Board's examinations meet the best global practice. Candidates who bring any of these items to the hall would be disallowed from taking the UTME.
