The Board, once again, wishes to state clearly that the only way to check the 2024 UTME result is to send UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone used by the candidate in registering for the UTME exercise.
This is different from what obtained last year, hence, the results, at the moment, are not and cannot be found on the Board’s website.
Candidates are urged to follow the method specified above to obtain their results. They need not visit any cybercafe or patronise any third-party entity to check their result.
The public is also advised to be wary of any candidate parading printed result slip as currently, the result is not on any paper format as being circulated on social media by some individuals.
A reasonable number of candidates have checked their results as seen on our monitoring dashboard but for the few still struggling, please follow the right channel.
It should be noted that the text for the Use-of-English paper for the 2024 UTME remains “The Life Changer” by Khadija Abubakar Jalli
The Board is aware of the anxiety on whether the featuring of question from the text, “Sweet Sixteen” and some other prescribed texts in Arabic, Hausa, Igbo and Literature-in-English in the 2024 Mock-UTME is indicative of its replacement of the chosen reading text “The Life Changer” and other prescribed texts. The Board hereby states categorically that the mix-up was not a mistake but an attempt to up our game against emerging issues. It should be noted that the text for the Use-of-English paper for the 2024 UTME remains “The Life Changer” by Khadija Abubakar Jalli while others are:

Consequently, candidates are expected to study “The Life Changer”, which is part of the syllabus and was issued to all candidates, who registered for the 2024 UTME. They are also to do likewise for all other subjects as highlighted in the syllabus.
It should be noted that the essence of the mock exercise is for the candidates to familiarise themselves with the CBT environment as well as enable the Board to ascertain its level of preparedness for the upcoming main UTME billed to commence on Friday, 19th April, 2024.
For emphasis, “The Life Changer” remains the approved reading text for the 2024 UTME Use of English which is compulsory for all candidates irrespective of their intended fields of study. It is worthy of note that the Board had issued the reading text through a QR code placed in each candidate’s profile, email address, among others, to reduce financial burden on candidates occasioned by the high cost of printing materials. Candidates are, therefore, to study the books listed above in preparation for the 2024 UTME.
