is it possible to Check JAMB result 2023 with SMS? Yes, this method was introduced by the JAMB registrar, Professor Ishaq during his first UTME/DE examination as JAMB Head, where candidates are given the option of quickly checking their results via SMS.

Unlike the old method where candidates can check their JAMB result with registration number only and it’s free. This method will cost anyone who uses it, at least, N50 airtime balance.

It’s no longer breaking news that the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has decided to finally release candidates’ results online after the examination ends. Candidates who participated in the 2023 JAMB examination can easily check their performance grades without going online.
