In the UK, a student must have A-levels or an equivalent qualification, and JAMB is not considered equivalent. It’s unlikely a 16-year-old Nigerian student would gain university admission in the UK or US solely with JAMB, though it’s possible in rare cases with exceptional academic records or additional qualifications (e.g., A-levels, IB, or a foundation program). While it’s uncommon, it’s not unheard of for a 16-year-old to be admitted to a university in the UK or US, especially if they demonstrate outstanding ability.”@BluntCrazeMan said:”So, why would the JAMB Registration Portal allow him to successfully complete his registration And even if he completed his registration, why wouldn’t JAMB disqualify him straight-away? Why would they assign him to any examination center?”Read alsoNigerian lady shares how she relocated to Canada as permanent resident after 3 years in UK@OG_BENZEMA_ said:”Nigeria will always find a way to limit you.
