I have 3.94, but I registered and sat for the exam on 15th.
Does that disqualify me?
Hello Suleiman,
Your grade disqualifies you. But don’t lose hope. Wait till they start contacting people for verification.

Also, is the cut-off mark for undergraduates going to be different from that of postgraduates?
Hello Sonic,
There is no cut-off mark. The results will not be released. So one cannot tell if undergraduates and Postgraduates have the same cut-off mark.
How long does it take for the result to come out

If not, you will have to head to the initial venue and explain your situation to them.
Good day ma, how long does it take to be shortlisted for the exam, after the completion of the application?

Hi Chiamaka,
Please is it possible for them to close down the site to download exam slips? Because people haven’t been able to log in
Good morning. Please I tried checking the website to print the exam venue and date since yesterday but it is not loading. Please what should I do?
And please, the printout that we are requested to bring to the exam venue, Is it the application printout?
Hello Favour,
The website is down at the moment. Just keep trying. Hopefully, they’ll resolve it before the 15th.
It’s not the application printout. The slip should show the venue, date and time of the exam.
I tried checking to print my exam slip at midnight both with chrome and safari browsers but it showed database error.
Is it possible for them to have locked up the portal?
Good day. Please I have been trying to login to print my exam venue and date but the link is not loading in any of my browsers. Please what do I do?
2) The printout we are to take to the exam venue, does this refer to the application printout?
Hello Favour,

The printout you were asked to come with is the one that shows the date, venue and time of the exam.

Hello Anita,
Many people apply for the exam in a year. There are not enough materials for all of them. So the federal government chooses to cut that number according to its requirements.
You might not have completely met the requirements or you might have been cut off for reasons best known to the board.
