Important Tips and Warnings
Double-Check Your Upload
To ensure accurate O’Level results, ensure they are uploaded correctly and check for any errors, such as missing subjects or incorrect grades.
Log back into your JAMB profile and revisit the ‘My O’Level’ section to verify the results are visible and accurate. If errors are found, re-upload the correct file immediately.
Re-upload If Necessary
Candidates may need to re-upload their O’Level results due to incomplete uploads, errors in the first upload, or updated results.
Incomplete uploads may require corrections, while errors in the first upload should be made before the institution reviews the submission. If outstanding results were uploaded during the first upload, the new result will overwrite the previous one.
Don’t Forget Deadlines
To avoid missing out on admission, candidates should know the admission cycle, submit early to avoid technical issues, and stay informed about deadlines and extensions.
Track admission timelines for your preferred institution, submit results early to avoid technical issues, and regularly check the JAMB website and email for updates.
