A few candidates have wondered if JAMB CBT duration is different from the time allowed per candidate in Pencil and Paper Test. The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has been generous enough with time, and so there are no changes from the normal number of hours a candidate is permitted to stay in the exam hall. The duration is still 3 hours – 30 minutes.
Yes three hours and 30 minutes should be enough for any candidate that is truly prepared for the examination.
You are expected to be present in your JAMB Examination Center (starting from 6.00 am) in the morning. This will help you to do biometric scanning, accreditation and other security checks before the exam proper. If you go there on time you will have time to settle and familiarize yourself with the environment – unlike those that will arrive at the venue few minutes before exam start.
