Registration Charges	700
CBT examination charges	1000

Meanwhile, candidates who have an interest in writing the Mock examination that will be set by Jamb will pay a service fee of one thousand naira (1000)

Therefore, if you have an interest in writing the mock examination you will pay the amount mentioned above at the time of registration.

Thus, this is done to prevent a situation in which candidates indicate an interest in sitting for the mock UTME.
