A Nigerian lady has taken to social media to share her results for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), which she sat for the third time. The candidate, identified on TikTok as @ammaraah06, posted a video on April 21, 2026, showing her scores shortly after the results were released.
Candidate's Performance in Science Subjects
The lady sat for science-based subjects: Physics, Biology, Chemistry, and English language. According to the result she shared, she scored 67 in English, 45 in Physics, 51 in Biology, and 63 in Chemistry, bringing her total aggregate to 226.
Reaction to the Result
While reacting to her performance, the young lady expressed mixed feelings. She admitted it was not her original target but noted it was her best result so far. She wrote: "Not what I aimed for but I thank God. This is actually higher than all the ones I've done before, so I'm actually happy."
Struggles with Admission
In an earlier video posted before the release of her results, @ammaraah06 opened up about her struggles with gaining admission and her repeated attempts at the exam. She described having written the JAMB exam multiple times without success and expressed frustration about being academically behind her peers. She said: "3rd jamb well I'm not surprised I've always been the dumbest in my era sometimes I feel like school's not for me because despite all my effort I will not still gain admission I'm so tired indeed I don't know what's for me because no matter what I do it won't work. My mates are about to enter 200 level, some 300 level, and some 400 level while I'm still finding it difficult to enter 100 level. I just have a feeling that this particular one is going to be my best and this is definitely my last."
Reactions from Nigerians
Her story has since gone viral, drawing reactions from many Nigerians. Some of the comments compiled include:
- BOBBY NATION: "This is my first and last JAMB. Because of Jesus Christ. Amen."
- ẞLÊSSFUL: "Mother Mary will intercede for you. I pray this will be your last time writing JAMB, in Jesus’ name, amen. The holy angels will guide you on the right path, amen. You will come out with flying colours. You will gain admission into your dream school in the mighty name of Jesus. Don’t get tired—continue to strive until you achieve your goal. I wish you good luck."
- ARAMIDE: "I am rooting for you, stranger. This will be your last JAMB in Jesus name. It will be your best exam so far. God will help all of us. We will come out in flying colours."
Nurse Aspirant Shares JAMB Score
Meanwhile, another UTME candidate shared the emotional moment she checked her 2026 JAMB result after borrowing money for airtime. The lady, who is also a nursing aspirant, scored slightly above the official JAMB cut-off mark but expressed disappointment after failing to complete her Chemistry paper. The result was lower than her previous score, leading her to question her chances of studying nursing.
