The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has announced the cancellation of the aptitude test for 2024 Direct Entry candidates. Instead, the board will utilize other placement criteria for admissions.

This decision was communicated on Monday through a post on JAMB’s official X handle. The message read:

“Attention 2024 DE Candidates! This is to inform you that the Board has shelved the conduct of aptitude test for the year. Other placement criteria shall be considered for your admission while adequate preparation goes into the exercise ahead of next year.”
