🔥 AVOID THESE 4 COSTLY MISTAKES IN YOUR 2026 JAMB REGISTRATION!

If you are preparing for the 2026 UTME, pay close attention, these same mistakes spoiled thousands of admissions in 2025. Don’t repeat them!

👇 Here are the 4 big errors you MUST avoid:

1️⃣ Using Someone Else’s SIM Card
JAMB will send ALL important messages (profile code, exam updates, CAPS details) to the SIM you used. If it’s not your own NIN-linked SIM, you may lose access completely.

✅ Use your personal NIN-linked SIM and keep it active till you gain admission.

2️⃣ Using Email You Can’t Access
Many students allowed cafés to create emails they can’t log into again — and they got stuck when they needed password resets or CAPS access.

✅ Create your OWN Gmail. Memorize or save the password safely.

3️⃣ Name Mismatches
Different name order or spelling on NIN, WAEC/NECO, or birth certificate = automatic verification problems during admission.

Examples:
• Gabriel Ufuoma ≠ Ufuoma Gabriel
• Added initials in one document but not another

✅ Ensure your names MATCH exactly across all documents before registration.

4️⃣ Wrong Subject Combination
Some students scored 280+ but still lost admission because their subjects didn’t match their chosen course.

✅ Check the JAMB brochure before selecting subjects.

💡 Start preparing early. Fix your documents now. Don’t let small mistakes block your 2026 admission.
