After JAMB has concluded exams and released results, the next phase is the uploading of O’level (WAEC, NECO, NABTEB & GCE) results on the JAMB portal for candidates who used awaiting results during registration.
During JAMB registration, a set of aspirants are allowed to register for JAMB even though they don’t have O’level results during the period of registration. With this awaiting result status on their O’level profile, it simply means that they don’t have the required O’level result and will upload it once they have their result.
O-level results are one of the requirements before you can be offered admission into any school. If you don’t have a result during the admission exercise, you will not be offered admission into any school, and this is another reason you need to upload your result.
Most of the aspirants who used awaiting results during their registration don’t know they are required to upload their O’level results on the JAMB portal after they have gotten their O’level results, and this is one of the reasons why some aspirants, despite scoring high marks in JAMB, are not offered admission.
However, some students are aware that they used awaiting results during registration, but they don’t know how to upload it on the JAMB portal. So, in this blog post, we provide you with a detailed description on how to upload your O’level result on the JAMB portal so as not to miss out on admission because of no result.
Requirements for Uploading Your O-Level Result
Before you can upload your O’level result on the JAMB portal, there are some things you are required to have at hand before you can start and complete the upload correctly.
The requirements for uploading O’level results on the JAMB portal are:
Your O’level Result Printout: Before your O’level result can be uploaded on the JAMB portal, you need to provide your O’level result printout. The printout will contain all your details, like the grades you got in all nine subjects of your WAEC, NECO, NABTEB, or GCE.
Your JAMB Registration Number/ Profile: You need to provide your JAMB registration number or your profile code number to the CBT attendant. You can use any of them, but make sure that the one you want to use is correct.
How To Upload Your O’level Result
The uploading of O’level results on the JAMB portal is done at the accredited JAMB CBT centres in any location in Nigeria. However, the steps they follow to upload the result are:
- Step 1: On the result upload page, you will be requested to input your JAMB registration number or Profile code. Check very well and make sure the numbers are correct.
- Step 2: On the dashboard, you will see all your details, including your O-level subjects with the corresponding grades at the front. For candidates awaiting results, the grades will be “AR,” which means awaiting results.
- Step 3: Your O’level examination number and the name of the school that is your secondary school will be entered and spelled correctly, the way it appears on your O’level result.
- Step 4: All nine subjects will be entered, and the grades will be changed from awaiting to the grade you have in the subjects. Make sure to check if the grades that were entered are correct.
- Step 5: If everything is correct, then it will be uploaded after the update button has been clicked by the operator. Once this is done correctly, your O’level has been uploaded successfully to your JAMB profile.
So, these 5 steps are how O’level results are uploaded on the JAMB portal. After your O’level result has been uploaded on the JAMB portal, the next thing to do is to check and verify your O’level result on JAMB CAPS.
