• A Nigerian student has said his UTME result is not a true reflection of his academic abilities because he studied well
• A part of the examination result that broke the boy's heart the most is mathematics, because he said he covered 90% of his syllabus
• He posted his result on X and noted that he scored 154 marks in aggregate, a far cry from what he was expecting

Apart from the abysmal performance in mathematics, the student also scored 44 in Use of English.

While he scored 38 in physics, he scored 39 in chemistry, bringing his total marks to 154.

"Dear @JAMBHQ I'm writing to formally express my concern regarding the result I received. I believe that this score does not reflect my JAMB especially the mathematics because how can I cover over 90 per cent of my maths syllabus and end up scoring 33 out of 100."

"Please, you guys should investigate this cos when am scoring 235, 253 una no give me admission. Now that I scored 154 how will I receive admission.........am writing this with sadness cos you guys have really set my life back. I don't believe this results please you guys should help me tag jamb.......y'all should help me out pleasseee."
