We were rescheduled to another CBT centre at JAMB office on 20th April 2026, and the examination was done successfully. But to my greatest surprise, when I checked my result, it was the result of the cancelled centre that they released for me, because I did not attempt English and Biology at all. I only did little of Physics and little of Chemistry at that cancelled centre. Please, how do I get my result from my rescheduled centre?"
