Candidates of the on-going Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, have complained that apart from the lateness in starting the examination, a bigger challenge was with the English Language paper as answers to some of the questions were not made available.
Speaking to reporters, Miss Basirat Jerah, whose examination center was at the Yaba College of Technology, said “the examination scheduled to commerce at 6:30am started by 8:45am as a result of server failure, but the surprising aspect was that some of the questions on English Language were wrong as the answers were not in the options given.
“Only God knows what would become our fate as we pray JAMB officials would consider this when marking and grading us’.
Confirming Jerah’s claims, Miss Precious Ogunlele who also wrote the exam at Yaba College of Technology, who said “Questions 11-20 of English Language were incorrect as the answers were not on the options. We only pray and hope this would be taken into consideration so as not to negatively affect our scores.”
