Lets take it home to Nigeria.
In the 70's,80's and 90's the process of writing J.A.M.B has been improved.
Students buy the JAMB form via the Banks,fill form,post it and wait for the 2-3 months to get your posting for your exam center.
Then you go there,write your exams as a P.B.T{Paper Based Test} on a particular scheduled date nation wide,
JAMB gets a team to mark your exam then you wait for 1-2months
to get a release of your results.
In recent times, you buy your JAMB Form online with a scratch card and write your exams as C.B.T{Computer Based Test} also results are now
provided immediately after your test and the test dates are scheduled for different people.
Improvements:
