The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board says it is now ready to conduct the Computer Based Test for candidates writing its Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

The JAMB Registrar, Prof. Dibu Ojerinde, gave the assurance during an advocacy campaign on the CBT initiative in Akure, on Monday.

The event, which took place at the Federal University of Technology, Akure, had 100 students from 10 schools participating in a mock exercise.

At the end of the examination, which lasted for one hour, each of the students got their results immediately.

Ojerinde noted that candidates, who might wish to write the 2014 UTME, would have the option of choosing between CBT and the normal Pencil to Paper method.
