The House of Representatives yesterday ordered the Federal Ministry of Education and the National Universities Commission (NUC) to ensure the immediate abolition of Post-University Matriculation Examination (Post-UME) in the nation's universities. To get the whole gist, pls click Here

what is happening 2 our educational system?

What do you mean? Aren't you supposed to be happy? Afterall, Post-ume has so many odds. I saw it as a BIG slap on JAMB's face. It meant that their exam(s) were not being conducted in a rightful manner or that their security at the examination center was not firm.

Not forgetting the fact that P.UME gives room for extortion.

By the way where is phronesis?  Tell him i was around lol

Let us jst wait & c if they re really serious on this. Bt if u ask me, i tink d Post-UME shld b eradicated 4rm our Universities. I c it as a venture 4 Universities 2 extort money 4rm their prospective students & parents. However, i also buy d unargueable fact that d conducting of Post-UME Test gives d intelligent 1s a brighter chance of gainin admission in2 d University. D problem is that Jamb is messed up. I plead wit d relevant organisations & bodies 2 first of al rebrand Jamb b/4 tinkin of abolishing Post-UME. CHINYXBOY SPEAKING!

I think having two entry exams for Nigerian students who are seeking admission to Nigerian Universities is not a good approach. It does not only lead to waste of money, it leads to waste of time. I think what the government should focus on now is to reform our University system including JAMB. If the JAMB is free of malpractices, the system should use the cut-off mark approach to continue to admit students into universities. I don't see any need to post-UME. Summary: make JAMB free of malpractices and have no PUME!

Seconded @ Phronesis.
