  • Missing out a letter, number or character of your email address. When you try logging in to your profile, it would indicate “invalid email address” or “the email address does not exist.” That is probably because you delivered the wrong details during registration.
  • Making use of a previously used email address. If the email address you submitted had previously been used, you would face issues when trying to regain your JAMB score. Even when trying to log in to your JAMB profile, you may not be granted access to it.
